Che Adams is “almost certain” to leave Southampton on a free transfer this summer, but Leeds United must gain promotion to bring him to Elland Road, according to Carlton Palmer. The former Leeds player insisted Adams has both international and Premier League experience, making him a desirable asset to interested clubs. Adams is thought to be frustrated that he was unable to leave Southampton in January, which has caused problems for the striker, who is not the first-choice option at St Mary’s. Palmaer said Football League World [16 April]: “It’s pretty clear that Che Adams will leave Southampton this summer.…

Watford manager Tom Cleverley believes ‘elite referees’ should be in charge of critical Championship games at this stage of the season, after criticising a decision that could cost Leeds United. On Saturday, the Hornets were defeated 3-2 by Southampton, who scored in the 99th minute despite only seven minutes of extra time. The victory means the Saints may potentially overtake Leeds in third place if they secure maximum points from their two games in hand, putting them within touching distance of Leicester City and Ipswich Town. While Cleverley admits the outcome will have little bearing on Watford’s season – the…
Leeds United released centre-back Conor Shaughnessy in 2021, but the defender is now working his way back up the EFL with Portsmouth, who are on the verge of winning League One and were selected to the Team of the Season. With three games remaining in Leeds’ season, the EFL has announced their Team of the Season, and the Whites are strongly involved. Leeds had three players named to the Team of the Season, including both the Young Player of the Season and the Overall Player of the Season. The EFL Team of the Season has been announced, and each roster…
The Academy Award-winning actor has acquired an interest in Leeds United. Russell Crowe, a film icon, has backed the new Leeds United ownership to make his beloved football team successful again. Crowe, a well-known Leeds fan, recently purchased a modest part in the club following 49ers Enterprises’ majority purchase from Andrea Radrizzani last summer. The Academy Award winner is one of many well-known figures who have invested in Leeds, including American Olympic gold medalist Michael Phelps and Major League Golf champion Jordan Speith. Crowe only just revealed his minor ownership share, which he had previously kept confidential, despite the fact…
Nuno Espirito Santo, Nottingham Forest’s head coach, is ready to offer the Reds permission to sign an international goalkeeper this summer. This season, the Reds and goalkeepers have developed a love-hate relationship. Forest have used three goalkeepers, with varied degrees of success. Matt Turner started the season as the number one and appeared to be the number one when Espirito Santo joined the team. However, a spate of high-profile errors prompted the head coach to make the change, with Odysseas Vlachodimos doing little to impress either. The Greek international joined from Benfica on transfer deadline day in the summer, but…
Leeds United has three games left in what has been an unbelievable season in the Championship. With only two points separating the top three Championship teams, the season’s final day appears to be fraught with tension. Start growing your fingernails now because you’ll need something to bite on when Saturday, May 4 rolls around. Leeds United visit Southampton on the penultimate day, and there’s a good chance that by game 46 of what will undoubtedly be one of the greatest Championship promotion battles ever witnessed, the three teams competing for automatic promotion will have expanded to four. Saints presently have…
Latest Nottingham Forest news as Nuno Espirito Santo’s Reds prepare for their Premier League game with Everton. There is a lot at stake in the PSR derby this weekend, as Nottingham Forest travel to Everton on Sunday. Both clubs have asterisks next to their names because they violated the Profitability and Sustainability Rules and were fined points. Both teams are undergoing an appeals process. Everton, of course, already has expertise in that area. Their 10-point deduction earlier in the season was reduced to six on appeal, and they are now contesting their two-point penalty for a second violation. Nuno Espirito…
Latest Nottingham Forest news as Nuno Espirito Santo’s Reds fight to avoid Premier League relegation. Nottingham Forest has struggled with injuries and absences throughout the season. It has been stated that Willy Boly’s death has had a greater impact than most. The centre-back was injured while on duty for Ivory Coast last month and has not played for the Reds since. Head coach Nuno Espirito Santo has stated that he does not know when the 33-year-old will return. Boly’s absence sparked conversation on NottinghamshireLive’s Garibaldi Red podcast this week, when the topic of set-pieces came up. It came following Saturday’s…
According to Phil Hay, Leeds United might suddenly find themselves in the “incredibly weird scenario” of being level on points with fourth-placed Southampton the next time they play. The Athletic journalist claimed on The Square Ball episode on 15 April that after the Whites were defeated at home by Blackburn Rovers on Saturday (13 April), the Saints will play twice before Daniel Farke’s side return to the Riverside next Monday (22 April). Russell Martin’s side appeared to be falling behind the top three until recently, but with two games in hand on Leeds and Ipswich, and one on Leicester, they…
If Leeds United is promoted back to the Premier League, their summer transfer window will look drastically different, with the level of targets likely to be far higher than that of a Championship side. Leeds are in contention for automatic promotion at the end of the season. With three games remaining, Daniel Farke’s team are third, one point behind Leicester City and two behind leaders Ipswich Town. Promotion is a serious prospect that has existed for some time. If the team succeeds, The Whites will pursue Premier League players or players of comparable caliber. Kalvin Phillips, for example, could fit…
