Former Bafana Bafana captain Radebe reacts to Leeds United's return to Premier League

Former Bafana Bafana and Kaizer Chiefs defender Lucas Radebe has expressed delight at the return of Leeds United to the Premier League.

Radebe's former employers needed a point to seal their promotion to the Premier League but they did it in style, beating Barnsley 1-0 to secure all three points on Thursday night.

Leeds needed a 28th-minute own goal from Michael Sollbauer's to cement their place at the top of the log with two games still to play in the season.

And Radebe took to Twitter to congratulate his former club which still holds him in high regard.
