Leeds United are currently in seventh place in the Championship table.

Vinnie Jones has urged Leeds United owner Massimo Cellino to hand Garry Monk some money to spend in the January transfer window.

Leeds sold out for the first time in six years for their match against Newcastle United, which they ended up losing 2-0.

Jones was delighted to see so many supporters at Elland Road once again, and he wants Leeds to push on from that, despite the defeat.

According to the Daily Star, Jones may get his wish, as Leeds have money to spend in January, with Cellino prepared to invest.

The Italian owner has been convinced that Leeds have a chance of returning to the Premier League, after a strong run of form has lifted them up the Championship table.

Leeds are currently in seventh place in the second tier, and they are only one point back from the top six.

Leeds have won nine of their last 13 matches, but they could not manage to get the three points against Newcastle earlier.

The Magpies scored both their goals through Dwight Gayle, to consolidate their place at the top of the table.
