Leeds United's January 2025 transfer business

What to expect in terms of incomings from Leeds United during the January 2025 transfer window.

00:00I very much get the sense from Leeds that the expectation is for a quiet window, that

00:09Farka's not bluffing on that. They feel like they're in good shape, they're top of the

00:15league with 51 points so there's a case there. The pessimist and the journalist in me would

00:21very much like them to explore the possibility of a 10 because if something happens to Adam

00:29Aronson then I think the 10 position becomes a bit more problematic. It might be just in

00:36the way that with central midfield, when they lost both defensive midfielders, replaced

00:41them with eights and realised, oh actually this works, it's fine, let's carry on, let's

00:45roll on. It might be that Aronson picks up an injury, Nyanto plays there or Solomon or

00:51Ramazani, it clicks in the way that Routier clicked when he was moved to 10 last season

00:57and we go, oh they've rolled with this bunch as well, it's fine, on they go. That might

01:00well be the case but I always think a bit of insurance is best and if you can do it

01:05then why not? But it would be finding an opportunity that fits in terms of P&S, fits in terms of

01:14character, fits in terms of expectation that the player or his club might have for game

01:19time because you would imagine it would probably be more likely to be a loan than a permanent

01:23In January, Farkas always says we'll stay awake and you know that Leeds would have to

01:30respond if they did have a horrific situation at fullback, for example, or a horrific situation

01:39up front or at 10. I feel like out wide they're pretty well stocked in a central midfield,

01:46they're pretty well stocked and about to be even better stocked when Gruev gets back.

01:50They'll be oversubscribed in the midfield area so there's only a couple of areas where

01:54it would really take a bit of action should something go wrong.
