Leeds fans have vented their fury on social media as recently-released Ezgjan Alioski looks set to join Galatasaray in the coming days.

Tensions are still extremely high between the two clubs after two travelling Leeds fans were stabbed to death by Galatasaray supporters prior to the UEFA Cup semi-final in 2000 in Istanbul.

And North Macedonian defender Alioski, who was released by Leeds a few weeks ago after both parties could not agree on a new contract, looks set to join the Super Lig club according to Turkish reports, sparking anger amongst Leeds faithful online.
