Marcelo Bielsa has told Leeds Live that Leeds United are not close to making any more signings, as the deadline for loans draws closer.

Leeds are thought to be looking for options in the market, despite their impressive start to the season.

The Whites have won all four of the matches that Bielsa has taken charge of, and have become the bookies’ favourites to win the Championship this season.

However, Bielsa is thought to want more quality added to his squad at Elland Road before the end of the month.

Leeds have been working to get some deals over the line, but it seems that no new additions are imminent.

“Nothing new at the moment,” Bielsa said, when asked whether Leeds had made any progress with bringing new players in.

Top of Leeds list of priorities to bring in is likely to be a centre-back, with Matthew Pennington linked with a return to Elland Road.

Leeds could be left short at the back if injuries do strike, so adding more cover would be a smart move.

Leeds are next in action this evening, when they take on Swansea City at the Liberty Stadium.
