Rasmus Kristensen's first words after sealing Jesse Marsch reunion at Leeds United

New Leeds United signing Rasmus Kristensen claimed that it was incredible to be sat inside Elland Road for the first time after his arrival was announced. The Whites announced the completion of his move from Red Bull Salzburg on a five-year deal for an undisclosed fee.

He becomes the second player to sign for Leeds from the Austrian champions as he joins Brenden Aaronson in renewing acquaintances with Jesse Marsch. He played under the American’s stewardship for two years at Salzburg and admitted that he can’t wait to continue to build the bond he created with him at his former club.

“I had a brilliant relationship with him at Salzburg and when he was appointed manager here, I think it was a great decision for the club,” he told LUTV in his first interview. “I feel like I fit right into the philosophy and system that he wants to play. I hope I can show that on the pitch.”
