Weston McKennie left Leeds and England just hours after their relegation was confirmed with defeat at home to Tottenham.

The on-loan Juventus midfielder was taken off on the hour mark and was barracked by home fans as Spurs won 4-1 at Elland Road.

McKennie's father, John, took to social media to confirm his son was immediately cutting ties with Leeds.

He wrote: "All the best to LUFC! For those who supported Weston in a hostile environment you have my respect!

"For those who failed to remember it's a team sport you live to fight another day."
