Leeds United want to win promotion.

Leeds United made their displeasure at the EFL clear with an unhappy statement criticising a ban for Pontus Jansson.

The Whites centre-back has been suspended and fined for post-game comments criticising a referee after their draw with Brentford.

Leeds’ statement said they would be reviewing their media policies, while adding they only decided not to appeal the ruling because they felt it would be futile.

It’s clear Leeds are unhappy with the EFL, with the league’s disciplinary board also failing to punish Brentford’s Sergi Canos for a headbutt on Whites winger Ezgjan Alioski.

There’s one way for Leeds to erase the problem: Get out of the EFL.

The only way to do this is to win promotion to the Premier League.

Sure, Leeds could have their own set of issues within the top flight, but the club would rather take that gamble and pay that price, for the financial rewards which come it.

This latest episode could strengthen Leeds’ resolve to plough their resources further towards a serious promotion tilt.

A January spending spree will be required to give themselves the best chance of success after a bright start to the season which has recently shown signs of faltering.

Their recent frustrations may have given owner Andrea Radrizzani extra incentive to give the club the jolt they needs to reach the Premier League.
