The summer transfer window was something of a nightmare for Daniel Farke and Leeds United, and it’s closure has to have come as a relief for the German and new owners, 49ers Enterprises.
For the next few months at least, it should allow the club to settle down both on and off the pitch, and give Farke the best possible opportunity to get the all whites straight back up to the Premier League.
They’re languishing in mid-table at present and certainly won’t want to be playing catch-up for too much longer.
By the opening of the January transfer window, the club should be in a much better position to understand exactly what they need in order to go all out during the second half of the 2023/24 campaign and make promotion a reality rather than a pipe dream.
One player that’s unlikely to be joining them on that journey is goalkeeper, Illan Meslier.
According to Football Insider, the club are completely happy about losing the player in January, despite him starting most matches this season, as they believe that in Karl Darlow, they have a ready-made replacement.
His position in the starting XI at present is arguably designed to put him in the shop window and encourage the bidders that didn’t come forward for his services in the summer to put their hand up this time.
If this is true then who the hell is making these rediculas decisions. This must be a joke, not funny
And that’s why we will be in championship for next 16 years Darlow is crap . But I think that Rubbish Football insider is as reliable as a Choclate fire guard
What has messier done to annoy top brass
Rubbish article. Nightmare window? we’re actually better off with our new signings. Languishing in mid table? we’ve lost 1 game.
We’ve only won one game too.
Darlow lol not in the same league Meslier.
Yeah this is a particularly poor take, and I’m not even a Leeds fan primarily.
I was really surprised they weren’t gutted like LCFC & Southampton
