Ben White has joined Leeds United on loan from Brighton and Hove Albion in the summer transfer window.
As announced on Monday, Championship club have signed White on a season-long loan deal from Premier League outfit Brighton and Hove Albion.
The 21-year-old, who can operate as a central defender or as a right-back, has said that he had a double session with Bielsa’s squad on Monday, and that he knows that training is tough.
White told Sky Sports: “I went in for a double session today, straight in. (I have not) spoken to any of the players yet but I hear it’s going to be tough. I am quite relaxed and chilled and will take everyday as it comes.”
Good signing for Leeds United?
White is a very good and promising young defender who did well during his loan spells at Newport County and Peterborough United.
The 21-year-old’s versatility to operate as a central defender or as a right-back will also come in handy for Leeds, as the 2019-20 campaign progresses.
Leeds needed to sign a young central defender, and White will enhance the quality of the team at the back.
The Whites finished in the top six of the Championship last season and will be aiming to end up in the top two in 2019-20.
