I can’t imagine he’d join us over Leeds, given our respective league positions - unless getting regular games is more important to him than loads of money as a premiership reservist.
I think how Leeds handled Eddie Nekitah from Arsenal will be something that a decent young player's advisor's should be aware of. A bit of extra cash now and no game time will probably stunt any future long term potential. Plus, it's a big step up from L1 to the Premiership (assuming Leeds don't choke again....), so difficult to see him getting much, if any game time at that level. No doubt his agent will say take the cash, and then tout him as a Premiership player in a year or so when they sell him on.....
