Luciano Becchio responds when asked his favourite Leeds memory, fans will love his answer
By Harvey Byrne
Luciano Becchio has told that when Leeds win promotion that will mark his favourite memory of the club.
The 33-year-old striker is a fan favourite after spending five years at Elland Road between 2008 and 2013.
During that time he scored 86 goals in 219 appearances in total for the side and helped the prestigious club win promotion from League One in 2010.
However, he has his eyes on another promotion to the Premier League and when a fan asked for his favourite Leeds memory, Beccho replied via his personal Twitter account: “when we get the promotion” with ‘get’ being used in the future tense.
Becchio’s response will no doubt endear himself to Leeds fans further and supporters will love his comment as they are so keen for the club to end their 13-year wait for Premier League football.
The Yorkshire giants came close in the last campaign, finishing in seventh place, which marked their highest league finish since 2011 when Becchio was still at the club.
However, it still wasn’t enough and under summer appointment Thomas Christiansen supporters will now be hoping the club can take a step forward in the next campaign.
Leeds will kick off the 2017-18 season away at newly promoted side Bolton on Sunday August 6.
