Seth Johnson has expressed his disappointment with chairman Ken Bates' decision to air his views on the expensive Derby County capture.The Leeds supremo said the club had not benefited from the capture of the tough-tackling midfielder and that The Rams and player were laughing at the deal.
However, Johnson has hit back by saying he is desperate to repay the club by helping them secure a swift Premiership return.
Leeds have stated they will not be playing the 25-year-old as another appearance will trigger a £250,000 payment to Derby.
"Seth is most disappointed Mr Bates has chosen to put the matter into the public domain in this manner," read a statement from Johnson's advisers, Base Soccer.
"Seth suffered an horrific injury in snapping his cruciate ligament and has undergone a number of operations, missing a huge chunk of his career as a result.
"Thankfully, Seth is now fit and eager to play for Leeds United."
