Leeds United fans were fuming after the received the latest regarding a potential move for Manchester City youngster Ian Poveda.
According to Beren Cross from Leeds Live, the 19 year-old Englishman is undecided on his future amid reports he was in Italy with his father to watch Torino’s victory over Bologna. The player is of big interest to the Whites, however, they face competition over any transfer from the Juventus’ arch-rivals as well as Parma.
The player has enjoyed a brilliant season with the Citizens having joined them in 2016 from London side Brentford. He has scored three goals and provided two assists for various youth sides this year (via Transfermarkt). His five goal-contributions this campaign would rank fifth-place among the Elland Road outfit’s squad and could make him a useful addition this winter (via WhoScored).
Fans were left feeling angry after the news Poveda is yet to decide his future as they took to Twitter to shame ‘typical Leeds’. Here is a selection of tweets from the Yorkshire faithful:
Why do we always take so long to sign a player? Surely other clubs done mess about like we do?!

If we hadn’t left ourselves so thin in the summer we wouldn’t be getting dragged around on this high pressure merry chase for players to make a profit on in 2 years time. Just money ball signings. Not going to make an impact on first 11.
