Ampadu joined the club this summer from Chelsea and has impressed despite the Whites’ indifferent start to the season.
Despite having a challenging start to the season, Leeds United has managed to grab a transfer “snip.”
In the transfer market, Leeds United has pulled off a “steal” by signing Wales international Ethan Ampadu on a permanent basis from Chelsea.
According to former Whites forward Michael Bridges, despite Leeds‘ mediocre start to the season, he has already shown to be a “absolute snip” at £8 million.
Ampadu‘s midfield contributions have been one of the few bright spots for United this season despite the fact that they have yet to win a Championship game under Daniel Farke. Bridges believes that this season’s promotion prospects will be greatly aided by his leadership and talent.
“He is an incredible. By the way, I’m a great fan of his. Bridges said on the Leeds United podcast, “What a signing.
“I believe he is a complete bargain if he is worth £8 million. You bring up players who we have previously signed, where you might say, “Decent price tag, that,” but the investment hasn’t quite paid out.
“I believe we have found an amazing steal here based on what I have observed from Ethan in the preseason games and the season’s first game. What an actor.
“I was puzzled by the fact that he is 22 and seemed to have been around for a very long time. 44 appearances for Wales had me wondering how this is possible at such a young age.
“I made my debut at the age of 16, whereas he began playing for Exeter while still in high school. I’m eager to see how he performs at the centre of the midfield because he reminds me of a former James Milner or Aaron Lennon for Leeds.
“I am all for that when you have a good core of leaders down the middle, and he is one of them. At such a young age, I find it hard to believe I am saying that.
