I believe White only has 12 months on his contract at Brighton and has turned a new deal down so I’m guessing the move will happen at some stage but will be costly for Leeds. Very true Transfermarkt have him down on contract over 2022 with an additional year option, but I have no idea if that is correct.

Or he'll want to stay at Brighton. But I doubt they will say no to the £40m figure that's been touted if one of the big boys are in for him.

If arsenal came in for hkm or spurs lets say he isnt going to reject them for leeds. Id argue he could get in one of those clubs first teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky just reported the same (they probably get their info from Transfermarket!) so probably correct, Leeds have offered £25m and it is supposed to be their final offer. I hope they get him for closer to £30m because that will be a drain on their budget. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have Liverpool away, Fulham at home, Sheffield away, City away, Wolves at home and then play us. I'd be surprised if they had more 3 or 4 points by the time they play us and that could easily dent their confidence if they've been spanked a couple of times or had VAR issues go against them (as happened to us last year).

Hopefully this is something that will drag on ending with him moving someplace else or staying at Brighton. Added to the fact that they only have one fit senior center back.

Popular Post MarkLillis Posted August 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 24, 2020 (edited) Check out The Story of Don Revie & "Dirty Leeds - Considering how into their history they are its a surprise that Leeds fans can consider themselves anything other than provincial club that had a lot of success under one manager. They are very similar to Brian Cloughs Derby or Forests sides of the 70s. Whilst you can see why a certain generation of fans sees them in a particular way...….its mystery why any younger fans think different?

It's Your Round Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Not getting Ben White will really disrupt them, he will be so hard to replace in that defence. I’m not sure how much money they’ll decide to spend but if it’s not a lot then I can see them doing a Norwich, the Premier League won’t allow their style of play to steamroller teams like the Championship did. It’ll be very interesting to see how Bielsa adapts though. We all know he can explode if things don’t go his way, be a crying shame if he walks out on them in the bottom three after not getting the players he wants.
