'He gets better every year!' Leeds United fans overjoyed after Pablo Hernandez's new contract

Leeds United fans were delighted after the club announced that Pablo Hernandez had signed a new two-year extension to his current contract.

The Whites have announced a flurry of new deals in the past months for key member of Marcelo Bielsa's squad.

The Spaniard joins the likes of Stuart Dallas, Luke Ayling, Kalvin Phillips and Mateusz Klich in penning fresh terms this season.

Tying down Hernandez was always a priority for United, having won the Player of the Year award for the past two seasons and excelling under Bielsa following the head coach's arrival in 2018.

The chief playmaker has been a key member of the squad ever since signing in 2016 and appears to have got better with age.

The 34-year-old's new deal will run until 2022, extending his stay at Elland Road much to the delight of the Leeds United fan base.

With what many regard as their 'best player' tied down to new terms, the Whites have voiced their pleasure on social media after another smart move by the club.

Here's a round-up of their reaction from social media.
