Leeds United are reportedly set to miss out on the 23-year-old, who seems bound for Huddersfield Town.
The Sun reported earlier this month [09/06, page 59] that Leeds United would be missing out on Reece Brown.
The report claimed that Huddersfield Town were likely to sign the Forest Green Rovers midfielder, who 11 goals and set up 15 for the League Two side last season.
According to The Huddersfield Examiner today, ‘a deal is in the works’ but no announcement is imminent.
It looks like Leeds are set to be beaten to the 23-year-old – who, according to Sky Sports, will cost the Terriers around £150,000 in a compensation fee – and here’s how some fans of the Elland Road side reacted.
If Leeds were genuinely interested then yes, missing out on a target – any target – is a bit disappointing.
That being said, there’s a massive difference in quality between League Two and the Championship and being brilliant in the fourth tier doesn’t guarantee success in the second tier.
A year from now, United might be breathing a sigh of relief that Huddersfield signed him ahead of them.
