Garry Monk sends tweet to ‘loyal’ Leeds fans – Radrizzani to blame for exit

Garry Monk has sent a passionate message to the Leeds United fans on Twitter after the news of his resignation, with it appearing that new club owner Andrea Radrizzani is to blame for the manager walking away.

The former Swansea City coach moved to Elland Road last summer on a 12-month deal and speculation over his future has been rife in the media over the last month.

Radrizzani has recently completed the takeover of the Championship club and was urged by the Whites supporters to sort out Monk’s employment.

It was widely expected among the best betting tips of 2017 that the manager would pen a 12-month extension with the club, which Leeds could activate as part of his initial deal.
