I think this may be to do with getting into the national team, maybe said to him he needs to be playing in Europe to get in team🧐 gutted but it is what it is, best of luck to him

I must be the only Leeds fan that never really thought he was a top defender, a little slow for me, turned easily and a little bit clumsy with his passing. Good price for him definitely.

The price proves to me Leeds did not rate him. We can get better.

It's a little too cheap but I don't see that there was a queue for him so perhaps we can spend the money wisely??

Why do we allow our key players to leave?We should never allow their contracts to enter the last year. New contracts should be offered with 2 years left. Why can't we do what Brighton does, sell for 52 million buy for 20 million?

Are we the only club that deals with transfers with any element of decency or are we just mugs. Look at how we get treated by almost every other club, Southampton being the obvious one at the moment who are messing us about over a fairly average player who understandably wants to leave them. Why haven’t Leeds found a replacement before going public with the announcement for PS. The whole transfer season baffles me.

We move on 20m is good dough for him .

I hope there are some add-on's to the deal. I think £20million is cheap without such. He might be £20million pure profit, given he was an Academy product, I would like to see add-on's such as International call ups or European success.
He was a good servant to the club and otherwise I wish him well with his career.
Great player. Sad to see him go, but I wish him all the best.
@patriciamchale9803Good luck to Pascal. Not overly bothered with him leaving and while I understand he only had 1 year left on his contract, I still think he is worth a bit more than £20 million. Have we heard anything about Piroe going? would be interested in his valuation?
@iancollenette5974Thank you Pascal, you’ll always be Leeds.
@tentooneoddsBrighton? That the height of his ambition? Decent player, but we can do better and we need to do better, if we want to be at least mid-table next season. Important as he is to MF, Amps + Rodon have been a hell of a combo previously. Tbf he did well for us and we were good for him. Win-win, I guess.
@85CentsForAStinkingSodaJust gutted about this. He owes us nothing. Good luck to him.
@SusanBarber-l8lGood riddance old cement boots is going I got sick of him getting caught out v the top teams now get a centre back who can run
@garyhillman4993It is sad to see him go but if a player doesn't want to stay , with his contract running down, selling is the only option. I am surprised he chose Brighton, maybe it's the lure of the South. Good luck to Pascal . I hope the 49s find a better replacement and Leeds finish above Brighton next season
@luckyme3x3Well, the club must have known he wants to leave for some time now...enough time to prepare.
@SwissWhateverCheers Ger 🤍💛💙ALAW. Thanks Pascal it's been a gas. Good luck
@simonabbott8192Struijk a good left centre back and passer of the ball, however not the fastest centre back. I think we can do better, I thought that last season, but good luck to him.
@geoffreychadwick8230I have been watching this keeper in the world cup he is good commanding, in the air and a good shot stopper we need this keeper
@wilfgrant2611Pascal had his moments for us... sad to see him go, but the club must think we can get a better left CB otherwise I'm sure they would have offered him more to stay?
@Darkovic26Pascal is decent but not an international player so £20M ok for him. The scouting team must have left sided players on the radar surely....
@Northeastchap6565No great loss bigger named players have left over the years.
@Ksnw74Agree with all other positive comments here. 49’rs have, quite rightly, made a ‘head over heart’ decision here. Good luck Pascal, onwards and upwards for Leeds.
@mongoose9594Brighton is a backwards move he must have just wanted away you never really find out the real reason
@CraigWilkinson-n1uVery disappointed in this, Struijk would have been one of the last I would have sold, however if he really wanted to go it makes sense taking the money now rather than sweet nothing in a year, just hope we have a suitable replacement in the pipeline .
@stesco71Last of the Bielsa era players????
@beardyoldman8306Krejci to replace him. He looked half decent in a shocking wolves team so he'll up his game playing with Joe and Jaka.
@leesmyth205Over to you 49ers , find us one , if not 2 quality left footed CBs
@foxcub66Sad that he wants to leave and it makes me wonder why he wants to go. Big question is will we be able to upgrade for a reasonable price. Feels bad for Leeds that he feels that Brighton is a better place to play his football. 20 mil does not sound like a great deal.
@leeedsonetwoThere is no extra money from this because we have to immediately spend it to stand still!
@anthonygoodwin3016Hopefully get better to replace him.
@urbanspaceman7183morning ger, im not happy especially with the fee, is he not worth more than 20 million, I just hope the 49ers have someone lined up, because left footed CB are hard to get, I also can't believe some of the comments on some other sites slating him, I think he's been a good player for us, I know he had a mistake in him, what player hasn't, we move on Thanks Ger for update
@cubicm3bobbyconnell318Struijk is worth more than that.
@spig3547Last year of his contract and made it clear he wants a new challenge and £20 million a good price
@garykeys779620 million quid for a player reaching his peak!
@SeanSeekinsSad to see Pascal go but wish him nothing but the very best at his new club and thank him for his great service he has given to our club.
@karenkirton4802Shrewd bit of business for a defender with a mistake or two in him, who's stopped scoring goals and carries a hip vulnerability that could become an issue. Feel we've had his best years so getting bang for our buck now isn't bad business.
@dedgehog6835Wober maybe needs to come back to the bench for a year… get some value from him… mind you he’d probably get an injury whilst sitting down !
@fieldfurrowpitchandpasture988Werber 🤦🏻♂️Jesus Christ please no
@EiremarkPeanuts
@GavinBishop-gq1uk20 mill jesus ww alway get ripped off we overpa6 an sell cheap same old leeds
@GavinBishop-gq1ukBetter start getting Wober fit ??😐😐
@tonyryan2340Why? Sell him to a leauge rival then try and replace him with an inferior player pissed off with it an lets take a youth player bring him in build him up then sell him to somone in the sane leauge but hey we still have wobber harisson a, byram james perri and aronson yeh well done ffs
@GavinBishop-gq1ukShame but there are better players out there
@garyh4193Leeds is a bigger club than Brighton as he will find out. I happy we can bring in an upgraded player. We brought in the best left back last season..
