SAD NEWS:He is gone..due to..

Leeds are once again in the midst of a Championship promotion battle that could go to the wire and the pressure is very much on to return to the Premier League.

As such, Leeds cannot be wasting anytime on potential when it comes to signings next month. That is, of course, if they opt to bring anyone in at all.

 

Daniel Farke is hoping for a quiet January at Leeds, but if the opportunity is there to improve the squad then he certainly wouldn’t rule it out.

 

Number 10 remains Leeds’ position of priority, but another striker certainly wouldn’t go amiss considering both Joel Piroe and Mateo Joseph’s inability to nail down a starting spot.

Lennon Miller’s dad makes transfer claim amid Leeds interest

One player who has been linked with a move to Leeds ahead of the January window is Motherwell’s Lennon Miller, though they certainly aren’t alone in taking an interest.

 

Brighton and Southampton are reportedly the most likely destinations for Miller at this stage, in a deal that could be worth £5 million.

 

Miller is only 18 but has already captained Motherwell on several occasions this season, with big clubs not just in the United Kingdom having been linked.

However, speaking on the latest episode of ‘The Warm-Up’ Podcast, Miller’s dad Lee has told his son to ensure his next move is to a club where he is guaranteed to play regularly.

He said: “Italy are looking at Scottish players, especially midfielders right now and for whatever reason they are getting them across there and actually playing, which is a really good option. For me, my advice to Lennon is you need to be playing. His next move is so important to play and develop.

 

“He doesn’t want to go and play in the under-23s and build himself up, he’s a first-team player now. People are respecting him for that, his team-mates are respecting him for that so it is a difficult one.

 

“He’s loving playing at Motherwell but it will eventually come when he has to go to further his career. There are massive clubs, it’s over the media the clubs are interested. We bounce ideas off each other and have a laugh.
