Loads of Leeds United fans have been replying to a recent post on Twitter by Ezgjan Alioski, after the North Macedonia defender shared his pride in his name being on the club’s Centenary Square at Elland Road.
The completed Centenary Square was unveiled on Wednesday afternoon, with Alioski joined by our former left-back Tony Dorigo as the club continued the celebrations for our 100th anniversary.
Centenary Square is located next to the Centenary Pavilion, and includes a wall dedicated to paying tribute to every player that has ever represented the club, no matter how many senior appearances they made during their time in West Yorkshire.
Each player’s name is joined by the date that they made their Whites debut and the number of appearances they made, including those currently playing for the club.
Who starts at left-back vs Middlesbrough?
Alioski
Douglas
Davis
Dallas
Our £15,000-per-week ace Alioski, known for being a bit of a madman, has made a total of 107 appearances for United and counting, in which he has scored 16 goals and recorded 12 assists so far.
After the ceremony, Alioski took to Twitter to shared his pride in his name being on the walls of our Centenary Square, noting: “Proud to have my name on the walls at Elland Road. Great opportunity for fans to get involved.”
The opportunity that Alioski referred to is that fans have the chance to purchase their own stone in Centenary Square, ranging from a small stone at £60 to a premium stone at £399.
