Former Leeds United defender concerned over transfer investment as quartet's futures discussed

Here is your Leeds United morning digest for Tuesday, May 5.

Mills unsure about Qatari takeover plans

Former Leeds defender Danny Mills has cast doubt on a potential takeover of the club by Qatari Sports Investment [QSI].

Nasser Al-Khelaifi, the owner of French giants Paris Saint-Germain, is also chairman of QSI and has expressed an interest in purchasing a stake in the Whites.

However, due to the current global uncertainty over the suspension of football and no clear indication where the club will be playing next season, Mills is unsure any purchase will take place.

"Until we know what this season looks like, and next season looks like, it will be very difficult," he told Football Insider.

"If they get promoted I suspect they will get investment and there could be some loan players from PSG.

Quartet set for loan moves

The futures of a number of players hang in the balance as Leeds await their Premier League destiny.

Uncertainty over when the current campaign will resume or end, Leeds’ chances of promotion and what that means for the squad is yet to be determined.

However, Marcelo Bielsa has a number of talented youngsters at his disposal, some of whom may have to look at loan moves to continue their development, hopefully to return star in white. 

Leeds Live looks at what the future holds for Bryce Hosannah, Mateusz Bogusz, Jordan Stevens and Ryan Edmondson.

EFL clubs set for ‘civil war’ over wage deferrals

A number of EFL clubs believe rivals who have agreed wage deferrals with their players should be prevented from making signings when the transfer window reopens this summer.

Following the indefinite suspension of football, several clubs, including Leeds, are believed to be deferring player wages for up to three months, with most agreeing temporary reductions of around 25 percent.

However, those who haven’t agreed deferrals believe rivals may gain an unfair advantage in the upcoming transfer market according to a report in the Telegraph.
