A lot of Leeds United fans have been drawn to Twitter to share their thoughts on the latest transfer claim to emerge regarding a potential move for Brennan Johnson. 

According to The Athletic, the West Yorkshire side have ‘complied a lengthy dossier’ on the Nottingham Forest youngster, with Marcelo Bielsa said to have Johnson on his radar as a potential midfield option this month.

The news comes amid the Whites’ attempts to sign Brenden Aaronson from RB Salzburg, with the Austrian side seemingly holding firm on their position not to sell this month.

But as Bielsa’s side enter the final days of the window still searching for their first arrival, these fans shared their thoughts on the possibility of Johnson being that man to break their transfer drought.

What did these Leeds fans have to say?

“Sign him then”

“yes yes yes”
“Go get him now.”
“In a heartbeat. But we don’t do that sort of transfer do we? Ours are long drawn out affairs. Don’t think we’ll sign a first teamer this window.”
“Cheaper… young… music to our boards ears.”
“Superb player. Get it done”
“100% fantastic player, big future ahead of him”

The 20-year-old has had an impressive start to the 2021/22 campaign in the Championship, with 12 goal involvements to his name in the 28 appearances he has made (via Transfermarkt).

And with Bielsa’s side plagued by injuries, which have seen last season’s top scorer Patrick Bamford miss most of the campaign, it seems these fans would welcome the addition of the seven-goal Johnson.
