The former Stoke City loanee was a rumoured Leeds United target last month.
Stoke City fans are reacting to reports claiming Leeds United made an attempt to sign Jese Rodriguez late in the January transfer window.
According to El Desmarque, Leeds ‘fought to the end’ to land the Paris Saint-Germain winger, who ultimately joined Real Betis on loan.
Jese – a former teammate of the new Whites goalkeeper, Kiko Casilla, at Real Madrid – had a temporary spell at Stoke last season, which ended both early and acrimoniously.
And the Spaniard’s spell in the Potteries was so bad that several of a Stoke persuasion would not even wish him on a Championship rival such as Leeds.
This is what they are saying on Twitter…
Jese is said to have cost PSG around £22 million from Real Madrid in August 2016 [Transfermarkt].
But the former Spain Under-21 international has only played 15 times for the French giants, who have loaned him to three different clubs in that time.
Jese’s Betis deal is said to contain an option for a permanent transfer this summer [Transfermarkt].
