Orta confirms Leeds United's transfer uncertainty
Leeds United director of football Victor Orta has opened up on how much the coronavirus pandemic will hinder the ability to sign players during the summer transfer window.
The Whites won the Championship to guarantee their return to the Premier League after 16 years but the club know recruitment is needed to compete in the top tier.
But Orta has explained that the lack of clarity over when football fans will be allowed back in stadiums could have a significant impact on transfer dealings in the next several weeks.
Ibrahimovic issues future update
What does the future hold for ex-Manchester United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic?
The 38-year-old has been nothing short of a revelation at AC Milan since returning to the club in the January transfer window, netting 10 goals and weighing in with five assists in 18 Serie A appearances.
However, it would appear that the Swede won't be sticking around in Italy when his short-term deal expires at the end of the month, meaning he will be available on a free transfer.

Allen arrival accidentally confirmed
Leeds are expected to confirm the signing of Linfield’s Charlie Allen after a Twitter post from the Northern Irish club was spotted by fans before it was deleted.
The highly-rated youngster will become the club’s third signing of the summer window following the permanent arrivals of Helder Costa from Wolverhampton Wanderers and goalkeeper Illan Meslier from French side FC Lorient.
Allen will be seen as one for the future, although it appears Linfield may have jumped the gun on announcing the move, wishing the forward well on Twitter before quickly deleting the post.
