Leeds United are said to be willing to allow Lee Erwin to leave Elland Road on a free transfer this summer.

According to TeamTalk, Thomas Christiansen has decided that Lee Erwin has no future at Leeds United.

Leeds are willing to allow Erwin to leave on a free transfer this summer, although they do want a sell-on clause involved in any deal.

The Whites’ decision to offload Erwin has alerted a range of clubs in League One, with interest mounting in the 23-year-old.

MK Dons and Charlton Athletic are both said to be keen to sign the Scottish striker, who is edging closer to the exit door at Elland Road.

Erwin has been with Leeds’ squad over pre-season, and has even found the back of the net in their friendlies to date.

However, Christiansen has decided that Erwin has no long term future with his side.

The news comes just days after it was confirmed that Giuseppe Bellusci would also be leaving Leeds, as reported by the Yorkshire Evening Post.

Christiansen promised to give players chances after taking over at Leeds, but seems to be forming his squad for next season now.

Leeds have already been highly active in the transfer window to date, with more new arrivals set to come in the near future.
