Godwin ObajeLeeds United Set for Summer Exits to Boost Transfer Budget
Leeds United is expected to confirm its first exit from Elland Road this summer as the club looks to boost its transfer budget. The team has a £150 million transfer spend expected, but some exits will be needed to comply with Profit Sustainability Rules (PSR).
Potential Exits
Several players are expected to depart at the end of their contracts, including Sam Byram, Josuha Guilavogui, and Junior Firpo. Others, like Joe Rothwell and Manor Solomon, will return to their parent clubs. Brenden Aaronson has struggled in the Premier League, and some pundits believe he could be sold to invest the money back into the team.
Paul Robinson’s Comments
Paul Robinson has suggested that Leeds should sell Aaronson to invest the money back into the team. “Aaronson has struggled in the Premier League, and he may not be strong enough to compete in it, but Hutchinson isn’t the right one to replace him,” he said.
Aaronson’s Value
Aaronson provides value in his play style, working hard and being good at pressing opponents. His work rate means he can cover for teammates across the pitch. This season, he had nine goals and two assists, ranking among the top four players for most goal contributions in the Leeds team in the Championship.
Conclusion
Leeds United’s summer transfer window is shaping up to be a busy one, with several potential exits and arrivals on the horizon. The club will need to be smart in its sales and investments to comply with PSR and build a team capable of competing in the Premier League.
