Here is your Leeds United morning digest for Wednesday, August 12.
Why Gelhardt is confident he will thrive under Bielsa
New Leeds United signing Joe Gelhardt believes his hard-working style of play and willingness to learn will help him succeed at Elland Road.
The 18-year-old England youth international joined the Whites from Wigan Athletic on Monday evening, signing a four-year deal in West Yorkshire.
Gelhardt turned out 19 times for the Latics last season and is well aware that he will need to continue the rapid development he has undergone over the last 18 months since making his Football League debut.
White blow
West Brom could hand a huge blow to Leeds United's hopes of signing Ben White a blow with their own transfer business.
Birmingham Live state that the Baggies are stepping-up their pursuit of Shane Duffy, which could have a knock-on effect.
The Seagulls face a battle to keep hold of their defensive assets this summer, with Chelsea reportedly keen on Lewis Dunk.
If those exits go ahead, White could be given his opportunity in the first-team at the AMEX Stadium - and Leeds may see their path to a transfer blocked.
New stage for Harrison to shine
Jack Harrison will spend a third season on loan at Leeds United, after the club agreed a fresh deal to bring the winger back from Manchester City.
The 23-year-old was a key player as Marcelo Bielsa's side swept to the Championship title last month, scoring six goals and providing eight assists as he turned out in every single league game for the Whites.
His excellent form for Bielsa's title-winners came after constant progression during his time in West Yorkshire and he will now have the opportunity to test himself on the biggest stage English football has to offer.
And our man Callum Rice-Coates believes Harrison has a new stage to prove he's the man for Leeds United's big occasions. Read the full story here.
