Leeds United target Ben White is now ‘considering his future’ at Brighton & Hove Albion ahead of next season, according to Sky Sports

White has enjoyed a wonderful season at Leeds, with his performances a key reason behind why Marcelo Bielsa’s side were able to achieve promotion.

The young centre-back was a mainstay in the Whites’ team, and quickly developed a reputation as one of the finest defenders in the Championship.

Leeds now want to sign White on a permanent basis, but Brighton are keen to keep him.

That could cause problems for Bielsa’s men, as they try and reach a deal.

It could be that Leeds need White to push for a move to Elland Road, if Brighton are to sell.

And Sky claim that the 22-year-old is now considering his next move ahead of next season.

If White was to move to Leeds he would surely retake his place alongside Liam Cooper in the Whites’ defence immediately.

White also looks set to be a starter at Brighton next season, with Graham Potter speaking very positively about him. 

If Leeds are to land White it has been claimed by the Daily Mail that he will cost £20 million.
