A number of Leeds United fans were not impressed with the reports that Ronaldo Vieira may be on his way out of Elland Road.
A number of Leeds United supporters have taken to Twitter to comment on the reports emerging from The Sun on Sunday (15/07; page 59) over the weekend which suggested that Cardiff City are plotting an £8 million bid for Ronaldo Vieira.
Vieira is one of the brightest talents in the current Whites side. He has been a key part of the side over the last two seasons – despite injury restricting the amount of game-time he received last term.
It is not exactly clear which players will find themselves proving to be integral under Marcelo Bielsa, but Vieira, on paper, looks set to have a fantastic chance given his potential. It is difficult to think of too many players in the Leeds squad who can be as good as the 19-year-old when he is on form.
His performances were generally not quite as impressive last season, but Neil Warnock is keen to bring him to the Premier League with the Bluebirds, according to reports.
The Sun on Sunday (15/07; page 59) reports that Vieira is an £8 million target for Cardiff following their promotion to the top flight – and unsurprisingly, the news has been met with a very negative reaction from the Elland Road faithful.
There are a couple of suggestions that selling Vieira would make sense, but the large majority are adamant that Andrea Radrizzani must not contemplate selling the youngster this summer, especially for £8 million.
If Vieira realises his potential, he will be worth significantly more and letting him realise that potential elsewhere will be difficult for the Leeds supporters to stomach, especially if Warnock is the manager tasked with taking him to the next level.
Here is what some of the Leeds supporters made of the reports…
