As if any meeting with Manchester United needed any extra spice to it for those hailing from this side of the Pennines, the Whites could well go head to head with an old foe in Erik ten Hag’s line-up in Norway next week.
Leeds United will take on their rivals in red at the Ullevaal Stadium in Oslo on Wednesday afternoon in a pre-season friendly, and new signing Mason Mount may make his Manchester United debut after completing a summer transfer move from Chelsea.
The England midfielder is no stranger to encounters with Leeds carrying a bit of edge having been part of Frank Lampard’s Derby County side as the two clubs competed for promotion from the Championship back in the 2018/19 season.
