Leeds United fans issue Ben White transfer demand after Twitter post

Leeds United fans have responded to a Twitter post from Ben White and issued their plea in regards to the defender's future.

The Whites have reportedly had a bid of £35 million rejected for White, with Brighton said to be wanting in the region of £50m.

It looks increasingly likely that the centre-back will not be returning to Elland Road, where he starred last season on loan as the club earned promotion back to the Premier League.

But his future at Brighton is not all that certain either, with the Seagulls considering selling the 22-year-old as the likes of Liverpool, Man City, Manchester United, Chelsea, Leicester City and Tottenham circle.

It has got to the stage where anything White says or does leads to plenty of reaction and that was the case with a tweet of his last night.

Responding to a Super 6 post praising him, the 22-year-old shared the tweet with a hailing hands to the sky emoji.

This naturally led to reaction aplenty from Leeds fans.

The original Super 6 tweet hailed White for his performances last season at Leeds under Marcelo Bielsa and predicted a big campaign to come in the Premier League.

"A Rolls-Royce of a centre back," it read with a highlights video alongside it. "An England international in the making.

"Ready to take the #PremierLeague by storm. Sit back, relax and enjoy the brilliance of Ben White."
