    Headline from Mirror. I wonder if theres any truth in that. He has never said he wants to go anywhere. Also puzzled as to why we are seemingly making no effort to keep him.If he does leave, hopefully it will be Fulham. We certainly don't need Max helping our opposition in a title challenge

    Eire, something posted elsewhere yesterday suggests Max will sign a 3 year etension later this week. Me thinks whatever the Mirror say is just yet another example of lazy journalism. I also can't recall reading/hearing that Max is a wantaway. He seems to be enjoying his time at Leeds, especially after we held the supposedly mighty Hammers on their own turf.

    Grayson quote from Evening Post

    “I also brought Gradel back in for Nunez on Sunday because it was an opportunity for him to shine"

    Weird comment!

    It's only the mirror that are saying this.

    Also, we've had 1 bid. There may be interest in him, but that can mean some clubs are considering whether he'd be a good addition not actually looking to signing him. The 1 bid was rejected and hasn't been improved. Gradel will be here after the transfer window.

    If he signs a 3 year extension & we don't go up he'll be gone before next season for £5m+ & I don't suppose any of that will be spent on the team. My guess is he'll sign improved terms with a release clause should we not get promoted this season.

    The mirror is anti-Leeds, so just take it with a pinch of salt. Probably just trying to stir things up.

    I doubt a release clause would be involved

    The sports director of the Mail is a West Ham fan, thats strange for him to let this story be published!

    LAZY JOURNALISM

    He said that he knows about the interest from other clubs and this is a good thing because it means he's playing well. Completely twisted into something else. Any link on the extension story?

    well we have 9 days left till the window closes...

    if we are to sell him my POV is do it now and then use the money to bring two in...
    (proving that tight git gives him the money)

    lets not wiat till the 30th then scratch our balls for a day and the window closes... the key will be also if he is rested tonight and there for not cup tied?

    tell ya what will happen straight away! We will sell him deadline day to make some money and then we will end up bringing in another loan player from a premiership club who will make us better.... ergh ergh! Premiership & make us better doesn't sound right at all!! With any money made, batesy can put that balcony bridge on top the stadium for people just passing through!!
