Andrea Radrizzani has dropped a big hint on Twitter that Leeds are about to complete the signing of Rasmus Kristensen – by liking a Tweet quoting Kristensen. A medical is expected after the international break.
Kristensen, 24, has piqued Leeds’ interest after a stellar 2021-22 campaign for RedBull Salzburg. He had a hand in 18 goals from right-back. That is, after joining the Austrian outfit as one of Jesse Marsch’s first signings in 2019.
Currently with Denmark’s national side, Kristensen earned his fifth senior cap against France last week. He came off the bench with France leading 1-0, helping Denmark go on to win 2-1.

Reports state that Kristensen is set to sign a five-year contract at Elland Road – with only a ‘few details’ left to sort. He was asked about a move, saying he has told his agent not to tell him anything until after Denmark duty.
But he also mentioned Marsch, and recent teammate Brenden Aaronson – before saying how big a club Leeds is. Now, Radrizzani has dropped a hint over his arrival, liking a Tweet that quoted Kristensen.
Leeds: Radrizzani drops Kristensen hint – solid second signing
Kristensen is a top signing. A player to have starred in the Champions League, excelling in his position, producing 18 goal involvements and for just £10million, at 24. It is extremely good business from Leeds.
Even Marsch thinks he is a good player. He predicted in 2021 that Kristensen is ready for a big move to a larger European side. Now, he is to give Kristensen that opportunity in the coming weeks.
