Leeds United insist Ethan Ampadu has their full support as images of his son in a Galatasaray shirt emerged.
Two fans, Christopher Loftus and Kevin Speight, were tragically killed prior to the club’s UEFA Cup semi-final clash against the Turkish side in April 2000 and remains a sensitive topic among the fanbase.
The images were posted online by Ampadu’s former partner, which then forced the club to issue a statement. “Leeds United are aware of an image circulating online of Ethan Ampadu’s son,” it read.
“Ethan separated from his partner several months ago and has no responsibility for the image in question.
“Ethan is aware of and sensitive to the tragic loss within the Loftus and Speight families.
“The club asks for Ethan’s privacy to be respected in what is a difficult time for him personally.
“Our captain has been a leader on and off the pitch this season, demonstrating his commitment to the club, its history, and the broader Leeds community. Ethan has the full support of everybody at Leeds United.
“The club will be making no further comment.”
