Stoke City boss Nathan Jones tips Leeds for promotion

Stoke City manager Nathan Jones has tipped Leeds United to secure promotion to the Premier League at the end of this season.

Jones said to The Yorkshire Evening Post that Leeds were unfortunate to miss out on promotion this summer but they are a very good side and they are as good as anyone else.

Stoke City managed to win against Leeds United on penalties earlier in the week but Jones has been left impressed with Leeds’ style, structure and humility.

The rival boss heaped praise on Marcelo Bielsa’s side and the Leeds players will be delighted to hear such comments.
