EXPLAINED: Noa lang s robin van persie comparison as leeds linked forward admits he is set to leave belgium - The Real Truth

Dutch forward, Noa Lang has been linked with Leeds United for the last year, as Victor Orta is said to have done a large amount of analysis on the player. There were even reports of a deal being ready to be completed last summer, only for Marcelo Bielsa to veto the move due to concerns over the 22-year-old's defensive application.
