Paul Robinson is very pleased with Leeds United’s loan signing of Connor Roberts in the January transfer window.

However, Robinson believes Roberts, 28, has the ability to deliver a “huge boost” to the Whites in the Premier League…

Charles De Ketelaere is a name that is familiar to Leeds United fans. Over the years, players have been closely connected with a move to Elland Road, but it did not materialize. Rodrigo De Paul, too.

Tottenham are willing to sell defender Joe Rodon on a permanent basis for a cost of £10-15 million. According to Football Insider’s Pete O’Rourke, Spurs are ready to offload him since he is not part of Ange Postecoglou’s long-term plans. According to the source, several Premier League teams inquired about Rodon in January but were turned down due to Tottenham’s asking price.

Pascal Struijk appeared on Leeds United’s matchday preview program over the weekend, but Daniel Farke would much rather see him on the pitch – and the manager has provided an update on the defender. Struijk, 24, has missed seven consecutive Championship matches. So far, an adductor injury has proven to be the issue, with the left-footed defender anticipated to miss a few weeks. Farke earlier stated that he had a “little doubt” for the win over Cardiff, but that was six games ago. In his absence, Ethan Ampadu has been covering him alongside Joe Rodon in the middle of the…
