Leeds United fans have been reacting to news surrounding Ezgjan Alioski following some news coming out of the club.

Leeds yesterday announced their ‘retained list’ for the upcoming season, where they outlined what is going on with the contracts of players heading into next season, whether they are set to be released, or if they have been offered a new contract at Elland Road.

One of the players whose name appeared on the list was that of Alioski, with the club confirming that they have indeed offered him a new deal. Considering Marcelo Bielsa stated recently that he wanted him to stay at the club moving forward, that shouldn’t come as any big surprise.

Can you remember where Leeds finished in these league seasons? First up: 2018/19

Reports a couple of months ago seemed to suggest that the North Macedonia international was on his way to Turkish side Galatasaray following the expiration of his contract this summer, something that did not go down well with Leeds United fans at the time given the history between the two clubs.

The news that he has been offered a new deal, though, seems to have left many Leeds United fans rather excited indeed, with many hoping that he does go on to sign the contract:

“Amazing news”

“Hoping @ezgjanalioski signs on that dotted line”
“Gjanni staying then?”
“Alioski new contract YESSSSS”
“Hope he stays, need characters like him”
“Scenes when Alioski signs a new deal”
“Sign da ting”
“Glad Alioski is staying, really started to show massive improvement recently.”
“*if he signs the contract obviously”

Do you think Alioski will stay?

Yes, he will sign a new deal

Yes, he will sign a new deal

No, he is gone

No, he is gone

It shouldn’t be surprising if he extends his stay at Elland Road, especially when you consider the relationship that appears to have been built up between him and the Leeds United fans.
