Leeds United cult hero and famously private figure David Batty has lent his support to a campaign aimed at recognising the achievements of his former manager.
The former England midfielder, who remains one of football’s most enigmatic characters since stepping away from the spotlight after retirement, has reportedly added his signature to the initiative celebrating the lasting impact of his ex-boss.
Batty, remembered fondly by Leeds fans for his fierce competitiveness and no-nonsense style in midfield, rarely makes public appearances or statements. His backing of the campaign has therefore caught the attention of supporters and football figures alike, marking a rare moment of engagement from the much-loved former player.
Further details of the campaign and the tribute plans are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
