Sunday saw Leeds United fans presented with rumours about talented midfielder Ronaldo Vieira.
According to the Sun on Sunday (15/7 page 59) via Leeds Live the 19-year-old is apparently a target for newly promoted Cardiff City and manager Neil Warnock seems to believe that with the offer of Premier League football plus what would naturally be a boost in wages for the youngster would be enough to tempt him into making the switch.
The Sun state that former Leeds boss Warnock is prepared to pay up to £8million for the England Under 21 international and as you can imagine for a large portion of the fanbase, Warnock is not a popular figure.
For only £8mil as well, would have to be an audacious bid to even entertain the offer.

Nixon is shocking – always on the wind up with our fans. Don’t remember last thing he got right! £8m for vieira ok mate ????????♂️ wouldn’t buy his right boot

If a bid comes in for Vieira from Warnock,tell him he can keep his stinking disgusting troll fingers off him.

Moreover, fans simply don’t see how our Board could or would entertain the thought of a sale – especially at such a low price when you consider inflation in football – it wouldn’t just a blow to Marcelo Bielsa’s plans, it could, in fact, be the final straw if he’s sharing the thoughts of supporters when it comes to our inability to actually strengthen the first team group so far this summer.
It could also be the final straw for a number of fans.
If Colin (Warnock) buys Ronaldo Vieira for Cardiff City then I predict a riot! #lufc #mot #ALAW

@andrearadri hopefully we aren't going to sell Ronaldo vieira our great prospect. Let's learn from the Lewis cook sale because we sold him for nothing! Ronaldo is worth more than 8 Mil!

£8m from Cardiff for Ronaldo Vieira. That'll test the real ambitions of this club #lufc

For anyone wondering, the big #lufc surprise Alan Nixon referred to yesterday is an £8m Cardiff bid for Ronnie Vieira. Imagine my surprise that it's an outgoing over an incoming. Radz is on a par with Bates IMO, at this moment in time.

When was the last time you can ever remember us rejecting an offer for a player?
— N4gative_Andy (@N4gativeA) July 15, 2018
It's believable that we'd accept a bid for Vieira but I don't think for one second he'd go to Cardiff

If we sell Ronaldo Vieira am not gonna be happy

There’s no surprise if another club want Vieira. He’s a great talent. The HUGE surprise will be if @LUFC entertain anything other than a massive offer.

Vieira – be a massive mistake to let him go NOW. done well at England level and shown an increase in ability over nearly 3 years of being a Leeds player. If you want him sold then play him and sell him for his value further down the line if thats how it plays out #lufc
