Will Leeds United be busy in the January transfer window?

Leeds United Managing Director Angus Kinnear has suggested that the club will be focused in their January transfer business, as quoted by Leeds Live and The Express.

The West Yorkshire outfit were quite busy in the summer transfer window and made a number of signings.

Mateusz Klich, Felix Wiedwald, Samuel Saiz and Andy Lonergan were just some of the players that Leeds recruited.

The performances of the Whites so far this season have been mixed, and there have been inconsistencies in their results.

Leeds are very much in the race for the Championship playoffs this season, and many fans will expect the club to make signings in the January transfer window in order to boost the team’s chances of finishing in the top six.

Thomas Christiansen’s side are seventh in the Championship table at the moment with 36 points from 22 matches, just a point behind sixth-placed Sheffield United.

Leeds United Managing Director Kinnear, who was appointed in the role in May 2017, has outlined how the club plan to approach the January transfer window.

Leeds Live and The Express quote Kinnear as saying: “The ability of the squad to cope so admirably with a number of injuries and the undeniable quality that has been shown by players taking their chance in the first team, either for the first team or in a different role, means that our playing solutions for the rest of the season are more likely to come from inside than outside the existing squad.

“The January window will attract the usual media hysteria but it is notoriously difficult to navigate and secure both quality and value.

“If any business is done at Leeds United it will be focused, considered and founded on the meticulous analysis of Victor and his team.”
