Leeds United fans have reacted with passion to Graham Potter’s comments after the Brighton boss claimed that Ben White is part of their plans.

Centre-back, White, has been on-loan at Leeds this season from the Amex Stadium, where he has been a real hit with the Yorkshire fans.

Following their promotion to the Premier League, Leeds fans were keen to get White strapped up to their ship on a permanent basis, but it seems as though his parent club have other plans.

Potter, who has transformed the style of play at Brighton which suits White’s style of play, stated that the club rate the ball-playing defender ‘very highly’ and he will be ‘part of their group’ next term, as posted by Brighton’s official Twitter account.

Leeds fans were quick to respond to Potter’s comments and made it clear that they are now a top-flight side and they will sign him.

It’s going to be interesting to see what folds over these coming weeks and months because if Leeds do put money on the table then it’ll be interesting to see Brighton’s response, as well as White’s.
