Oriol Romeu fires Leeds United warning as he eyes revenge with Southampton

Southampton midfielder Oriol Romeu has revealed he is targeting some sort of revenge when his side travel to Leeds United after a nightmare night when he last played at Elland Road. The Spaniard will be returning to Leeds for the first time since he sustained a season-ending knee injury at the ground in February 2021.

Romeu fractured his ankle, which required surgery and ruled him out for the rest of the 2020/21 campaign. It completed a miserable night for Saints as they were beaten 3-0 by Leeds, which was a seventh defeat in eight games at the time for Ralph Hasenhuttl's side.

Saints will now be looking to avoid slipping towards a similar run of defeats, having lost their last three Premier League matches - and four in all competitions. But Romeu is setting his sights on a very different feeling leaving Leeds tomorrow, with the 30-year-old keen to banish the memories of his last visit to West Yorkshire.
