'Gutted' Leeds United fans react as Barry Douglas linked with Watford transfer

Leeds United fans have had a lot to discuss in recent weeks, with the club being active in the transfer market and catching the eye in their long-awaited return to the Premier League.

Heading into the final days of the international window, speculation about further arrivals persists but there is also plenty of talk regarding potential exits.

Among them is Barry Douglas, who is said to be in talks with a move to Championship outfit Watford and was excluded from the squad for the 1-1 draw against Manchester City.

A move to the Hornets could provide him with the regular playing opportunities he is searching for, as he has found it difficult to secure regular opportunities at Elland Road.

The 31-year-old has eight months remaining on his contract at Elland Road and was linked with a move to join Celtic earlier in the summer.

With an exit appearing to be on the horizon, many fans on social media took to Twitter to have their say on the reports and give their assessment.

While the first transfer window closes on Monday evening, Douglas is not in a rush to complete a move as the domestic window remains open until October 15.
