da betsul: Leeds journalist Adam Pope has provided an update on the future of Ben White, suggesting there is a bigger worry for the club than the defender being recalled.
What’s he said?
White has been earning rave reviews this season, being labelled as the club’s player of the season while also being given huge praise by Noel Whelan who claimed he was already better than John Stones.
A number of sides in the Premier League are reportedly in the race for his signature with Liverpool one of the main contenders. However, Chelsea are also in the running with a £25m fee being touted for his services.
Graham Potter suggested last week that he is likely to see out his loan spell at Elland Road. However, the chance of securing a hefty price in January could change their minds.
Offering his thoughts on Twitter, Pope claimed the following:
Good and bad news
Although there is a real worry in terms of Brighton’s stance on potentially selling the player, something that will be entirely out of Leeds’ hands, the fact it’s likely he’ll stay for the remainder of the season is a huge positive.
There would be real concerns if White departed in a matter of weeks, not just because of his supreme performances, but also because it would be difficult to replace him.

Gaetano Berardi has blown hot and cold with his performances at Leeds, earning seven red cards throughout his time in west Yorkshire. However, fans have been more pleased with his recent displays.
That being said, he simply isn’t as good as White who has established a mean partnership alongside captain Liam Cooper.
Before Marcelo Bielsa’s men drew 3-3 with Cardiff, they had a defensive record that bettered every club in Europe’s top five leagues.
The Seagulls loanee has been imperious at the back, registering 1.8 tackles and 2.5 interceptions per game. White is also particularly assured in his passing, achieving a success rate of 84.9% this term. Finding someone who could replace that in equal measure would be a colossal task.
There is clearly an agreement in place with Brighton but if a £25m bid did come in, it would be interesting to see whether they budged. For Leeds, it would be incredibly detrimental if they did.
