Former Leeds United defender Rio Ferdinand says he still doesn't understand why Whites supporters don't like him, claiming that he saved the club from going extinct.
On Vibe with Five, Ferdinand said there are similarities between what is currently happening at Barcelona, and what happened at Leeds when they were relegated and faced great financial difficulties in 2004. Ferdinand left Leeds to join Manchester United in 2002 to become the most expensive British footballer in history at the time.
Barcelona confirmed the signing of former Leeds winger Raphinha last week, with the Brazilian joining the La Liga club for a fee understood to be in the region of £55 million.
