With the exception of Rasmus Kristensen, the Whites have been very successful in moving some of their undesired players in recent weeks, but other teams are now focusing on their key players.

A significant development regarding Junior Firpo’s Leeds future
Leeds already has a very limited number of choices at the back, so losing Firpo would be devastating, especially as he contributed eight assists from January onwards to the previous campaign.
Leeds has lost so many players this summer that they really have no depth behind a back four of Sam Byram, Joe Rodon, Pascal Struijk, and Firpo.
However, it is said that Firpo and Leeds are in discussions on his possible return to Real Betis, a move he is eager to make.
And now, Ficherio, a Spanish publication, has given a significant update on his future by stating that Firpo and Betis have come to a personal terms deal.
Firpo is reportedly waiting for the two clubs to finalise the deal after even agreeing to take a pay cut to move the transaction along.
Given that Firpo’s current Leeds salary was anticipated to be a barrier, it is evident from his willingness to take a pay cut that Betis is where he wants to be.
What does Leeds think will happen to Firpo?
As previously said, losing Firpo would leave them severely lacking on the back line and without a player who was essential to Daniel Farke’s success.
Nevertheless, with less than a year left on his present contract at Elland Road, Leeds is in a challenging scenario.
Leeds’s last remaining opportunity to secure a fee for him is this summer, since they have not indicated that they will make another offer.
In light of this, Leeds is reportedly “open” to letting Firpo leave.
Leeds is reportedly “open” to allowing Firpo go in light of this, but that still leaves them with a lot of work to do in the market.
