Leeds United remains in the position of automatic promotion to the Premier League, maintaining a narrow two -point advantage out of second Sheffield United.
With the intensification of the championship title race, the whites are eager to strengthen their workforce in the last days of the January transfer window.
Despite its dominant league form, Leeds has not yet completed winter signings. Manager Daniel Farke remained closely over possible arrivals, but made known the possible news after a tie without balls against Burnley.
Daniel Farke suggests transfer activity
Speaking after the party, Farke gave a cryptic response when asked about transfers, saying (budgets through Leeds Live):
“I didn’t check my phone for the last six hours.
“I will check it out after this press conference, maybe I can tell you more at the next press conference.”
Leeds’ priority continues to add the fire power to his attack. Joel Piroe has been a prominent performer, writing 10 goals and providing five assists in 29 appearances, but additional reinforcements could be crucial in promotion.
With the rules of Fairplay Financial and PSR an important factor in transfer decisions, making it difficult for Leeds to secure its desired goals, it has been suggested that the club could remind Jack Harrison of his loans in Everton. The end of the Goodison Park attack has been bewildering and a comeback in the middle of the season in Elland Road could provide a significant impetus to Leeds’ attacking programming.
With the time it ends before the window goes out, Leeds faces a race against the clock to land the right reinforcements. Whether through a new striker or the return of Harrison, the club’s ability to strengthen in recent days could be decisive in his search to return to the Premier League.
