Leeds have managed to get Oriol Rey to sign a new deal and I am more than happy about that one.
When we signed him I was excited to see what he could do for the young Whites and he’s quickly gone about proving himself to be a very astute midfielder.
Composed on the ball and a real dictator of play from deep, he looks a potentially class act so to get him to put pen to paper has to be a feather in the club’s cap.
Let’s take a look at the reaction to the news:

The Verdict
Some of the senior signings have not been good at all but we’ve got a lot of young players that look like they could be top assets for us.
Rey is a real gem by the looks of things and so to see him set to stay for a few years yet is a shot in the arm.
