MOT Leeds News speaking to David Norris

Leeds United will survive the January transfer window without losing any of their star players, according to David Norris.
The former Whites midfielder acknowledged there is likely to be outside interest in players such as Wilfried Gnonto and Dan James after the Premier League raided Daniel Farke’s squad in the summer.
However, he is confident Leeds are in a healthy enough position to shun any enquiries for their top performers in the upcoming winter window.
“To be honest, I don’t think anyone goes. Not of the regular players anyway. Leeds have a massive chance to get promoted and they cannot afford to lose anyone now,” Norris exclusively told MOT Leeds News.
“To lose another two or three would be crushing whenever it happens, but in January would be awful. I don’t think they need to sell, and I think their league position means the players are happy enough there.

“The likes of Gnonto, James, players like that will garner interest – but it’s very unlikely anything happens in January.”
Leeds United focused on adding to the squad
With the summer window having felt incomplete for many at Leeds United, the club will be looking to finish their season’s recruitment in January and should leave next month with a larger squad than when they entered it.
One likely player to move on is Joe Gelhardt, who has barely had a sniff all season, with several clubs circling for a potential loan deal in both England and Scotland.

PSR concerns at Elland Road were diminished by the lucrative deal with Red Bull, as well as the key sales of Archie Gray, Crysencio Summerville and Georginio Rutter.
