“I am very happy to be here, confides Georginio Rutter on the Peacocks website. The Premier League is the best league and together with Leeds I hope the rest of the season will go well. I will give all my energy for the club. Before coming here, Illan Meslier told me that Leeds was a real family. He told me the fans are amazing and he offered all the help I needed to settle in. Football is for the fans, they are very important to the club and I want to energize the fans in the stadium. »
