Leeds United have made a third bid for Brighton defender Ben White.

The 22-year-old was an integral part of Leeds' Championship title win last season and Marcelo Bielsa wants him back for their Premier League return.

And Sky Sports says Leeds have offered £25m to sign the Englishman.

Brighton have previously said no to bids of £18m and £22.5m.

Bielsa might be buoyed by the fact that White has reportedly turned down a third improved contract offer from Albion.

White has previously been linked with Liverpool and Chelsea, but it is Leeds who have the most concrete interest.
