Orta is chief cheerleader
Leeds United’s director of football has never been shy in showing his support for the team, whether that be from the directors’ box, in the tunnel or in a Watford pub. Victor Orta was front and centre once more on Monday night at Crystal Palace.
As the players came off the field at full-time and made their way for the dressing room in the corner at Selhurst Park, Orta was waiting for them. Stood at the entrance to the changing room, Orta clasped hands and hugged every member of the team as they came past him, as well as the backroom staff.
