Do Leeds United need to sign more players in the January transfer window?

Neil Redfearn has been quoted as saying by Inside Futbol that Leeds United might need to sign a goalkeeper in the January transfer window.

Felix Wiedwald is the first-choice goalkeeper at Leeds at the moment, having joined the Whites from German club Werder Bremen in the summer transfer window.

The 27-year-old former Germany Under-20 international goalkeeper has made mistakes in recent matches in the Championship.

Andy Lonergan also moved to the West Yorkshire outfit in the summer, signing for Leeds on a free transfer following his departure from Championship rivals Wolverhampton Wanderers

Bailey Peacock-Farrell is the third-choice custodian at Elland Road. The 20-year-old has been on the books of the Whites since 2013.

Former Leeds head coach Redfearn has suggested that the Whites might need to sign a new goalkeeper in the January transfer window.

Redfearn has also outlined others areas where Leeds may need to strengthen.

“I would strengthen the spine so that they can play [Ezgjan] Alioski and [Samu] Saiz,” Inside Futbol quotes Redfearn as saying. “And [they] might even need a keeper.

“I think they’ve got to look domestically as well; they’ve got to look at people who have played at this level.”

Leeds are fifth in the Championship table at the moment with 20 points from 11 matches.
