‘Amazing’ player left out of club’s pre-season tour after reports Leeds United want to sign him
Leeds United are approaching the point of the summer where Premier League loans may start becoming more readily available.
Every year it is a market in which all clubs in the Championship look to take advantage of and Leeds certainly aren’t any different.
In fact, Leeds have made use of it already this summer having signed Joe Rothwell for the season from Bournemouth. It would be a surprise if he was the last one.
Over the course of last season, Leeds brought in four players on loan from Premier League sides, though it would be fair to say their success rate was hit and miss.
Joe Rodon was undoubtedly the best of them which is why he has been signed permanently, while Jaidon Anthony, Connor Roberts and in particular Djed Spence all struggled to make an impact.

Leeds have already been linked with a handful of Premier League youngsters this summer, but as is often the case, moves do not starting happening until later in the window.
Rodon, Spence and Anthony all arrived well into August this time last year, and with pre-season now in full swing, clubs are starting to make decisions.
