Leeds fans react to James Chester transfer link

Leeds United fans have taken to social networking site Twitter to express their reaction after reports broke out yesterday that the Whites are interested in signing James Chester from Aston Villa.

Despite signing Ben White this summer, it is an open secret that Leeds need a quality central defender to fill the void left by Pontus Jansson.

The 28-year-old Swedish defender has left the club this summer to join rival outfit Brentford. Leeds have reportedly turned their attention towards signing Chester.

According to reports from the Daily Star (h/t The Birmingham Mail), Leeds United are looking to bolster their central defender and has earmarked the Wales international to marshall their backline.
