Blackman has rejoined Chelsea after breaking his leg in action for Leeds.
Jamal Blackman was asked on Instagram if he would ever consider a return to Leeds United, and fans will be excited by the Chelsea goalkeeper’s response.
The 25-year-old saw his Leeds loan cancelled last month after he broke his leg in action for the Whites’ Under-23 side. The former Sheffield United goalkeeper has returned to Chelsea’s Cobham training ground to undergo rehabilitation.
It came at the worst possible time for Blackman, who acted as Bailey Peacock-Farrell’s understudy. Following Blackman’s injury, Marcelo Bielsa said that he would have picked Blackman to start for Leeds had he not broken his leg.
Blackman was asked during a Q & A on his Instagram story whether he would ever consider a return to Leeds, and he stated that he would be open to move but questioned if Leeds would need him in the Premier League.
Blackman managed just two senior appearances for the club, appearing in both Carabao Cup matches for the Whites after Bielsa made the surprise decision to keep Peacock-Farrell as the club’s number one.
The colossal goalkeeper has three years remaining on his contract at Stamford Bridge, which Spotrac claim is worth just £8,000 a week. It remains to be seen if Leeds will return for the stopper.
