Brighton & Hove Albion have landed Dutch defender Joel Veltman from Eredivisie giants Ajax, and some Leeds United fans think it could be good news for their own club.

The Elland Road outfit want to sign Ben White permanently after his successful loan spell during the 2019-20 campaign, but the Seagulls want their man back, with manager Graham Potter claiming he is in his plans for the next Premier League campaign.

Brighton’s newest addition is primarily a right-back, but he is also capable of playing as a centre-back, and Leeds fans reckon he could be a replacement for White at Falmer Stadium.

Here is how some of them reacted on Twitter to the club’s official announcement:

You could sell one…

Good to get a Ben White replacement in early lads. Impressive.
