The chief is our special guest at Elland Road on Friday night.
Leeds United is delighted to announce that club legend Lucas Radebe will be our special guest at the Sheffield United game. The Whites face the Blades in an intriguing Yorkshire derby at Elland Road on Friday, October 18th, when the two clubs compete under the lights in West Yorkshire. Radebe, a gigantic central defender, played over 250 games for Leeds, earning the nickname ‘The Chief’ for his authoritative performances while wearing the captain’s armband.
He was also a proud South African, having played in his country’s first international match after Apartheid in 1992 and gone on to play 70 times for Bafana Bafana. Radebe’s legacy lives on in Leeds today, even though he is 55 years old. We are happy to welcome Lucas back to Elland Road, and he will be brought out onto the pitch at half-time in front of the supporters, so please greet him warmly! We all look forward to your return, Chief!
