Leeds United fans are urging Aaron Lennon to come back to Elland Road after his latest tweet.

Lennon confirmed that he was leaving Burnley last night, and suggested that he was looking forward to a new challenge.

Lennon is now a free agent, and plenty of Leeds fans are hoping that Marcelo Bielsa makes a move to bring him back to Yorkshire.

If Lennon did sign for Leeds he would not be able to play for them this season, but he could offer them experience next term – whatever division they are in.

The 33-year-old may have lost his electric pace, but he still has the ability to cause defences problems and made 16 Premier League appearances over the past campaign at Burnley. 

Lennon’s last spell at Leeds was 15 years ago now, before he left to join Tottenham Hotspur in 2005.

Lennon made 43 appearances for the Whites, before going on to enjoy a stellar career at the top level.
