Leeds United fans cannot believe that they have spotted their former player Rob Green lifting the Europa League.

Leeds had Green for a season during the 2016/17 campaign, and he impressed at Elland Road.

Green was swiftly moved on by Thomas Christiansen in 2017 though, with the veteran stopper going on to join Huddersfield Town.

The 12-time England international then went on to move to Chelsea in 2018, and he has been their third choice goalkeeper ever since.

Green is yet to make an appearance for Chelsea, but he was in the thick of the celebrations last night, as Maurizio Sarri’s side won the Europa League.

And Leeds fans couldn’t believe what they were seeing in Baku.

Chelsea won the Europa League by beating Arsenal 4-1 in the final, with Eden Hazard scoring twice and Olivier Giroud and Pedro also getting on the scoresheet.
