Unlike others in the Leeds United squad, Rasmus Kristensen’s future looked relatively clear heading into the summer months. The Denmark international struggled to excel during his first year at Elland Road, but in the days that followed Leeds’ Premier League relegation, he is thought to have doubled down on his commitment to the club.
As Leeds Live reported a few weeks ago, Kristensen is understood to be one of the players who informed Angus Kinnear of their desire to stay and fight to get the Whites back to the top flight. It meant that Leeds were approaching the new campaign with at least one position fully stocked.
Reports of the right-back agreeing to join Roma caught many by surprise, then. The 25-year-old is said to have been a long-term target for the Italian outfit and Kristensen has responded positively to an approach made in the last few days, which is somewhat understandable, given the size and stature of the Stadio Olimpico club.
