Image source, Shutterstock Sheffield United have signed former Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford on a short-term deal until January. The 32-year-old was a free agent after being released by the Premier League side in August. The Blades have made a poor start to the Championship season and are three points adrift of safety after 15 matches. Bamford, who won one cap for England in 2021, could make his debut in the Steel City derby at Sheffield Wednesday on Sunday, 23 November.

As he tried to calm the concern after defeat at Nottingham Forest, manager Daniel Farke admitted Leeds United supporters could be described as "emotional". Which could go a long way to explaining why Joe Rodon has fitted in so well with them. The Wales defender not only wears his heart on his sleeve, but displays it on his face.

It's a strange link, I think, he only arrived at Celtic on deadline there when he joined from Hammarby. It would be a massive surprise if Celtic were even considering letting him go so early into his Celtic career as well. I don't think Celtic will be open to letting the Tunisian international leave, and I don't think they'd be doing themselves any favours with the fans.

Leeds contacted Klopp about replacing Daniel Farke, whose future at Elland Road is under increasing scrutiny. Despite Leeds' promising start to the season, their recent run of poor form has left the club slipping down the Premier League table, leading to mounting pressure on Farke from fans and club officials alike. Leeds United are currently 16th in the Premier League, just four points above the relegation zone.

The player is likely to move back to a European club. Bailey believes that a move to Germany is most likely for Carvalho. He said on Leeds United News: I've heard a lot about him. I think they will let him go out. I think a move back into Europe and back to Germany is most likely. I don't see Brentford letting him go to a rival. It's pretty nonsensical, really.

"I'm pleased with the way we play, and how dominant we are. We had several games where we were able to collect points," Farke said during his pre-match press conference. "It's always crucial as a newly promoted side to make your home stadium a fortress. "If you look at the teams that have lasted a while [in the Premier League], they have really, really good home records."

Leeds United's lack of attacking additions late in the summer window continues to loom over Elland Road and club hero Jermaine Beckford has made his preference clear for January. The former Whites striker believes Harry Wilson is exactly the profile Daniel Farke needs and has urged Leeds to go back in for the Fulham winger after a deadline-day move collapsed.

Leeds United are reportedly keeping an eye on a 15 million-valued Nottingham Forest star Chris Wood, as continued investment in attacking options becomes a priority for Daniel Farke's side. Wood's goal record, pedigree, and past connection to Elland Road make him a compelling target and Leeds may view the January window as the time to reignite pursuit. Wood is no stranger to Leeds. He enjoyed one of his most prolific seasons at the club before departing for Burnley in 2017.

Daniel Farke's side suffered a narrow 2-1 loss to Tottenham at Elland Road, with summer signing Mohammed Kudus scoring a long-range winner to seal all three points for Thomas Frank's side. Tottenham took the lead through Mathys Tel in the first half, before Noah Okafor's strike brought Leeds United back on level terms. However, ten minutes after the restart, Kudus announced himself to Spurs fans in style by netting his debut goal for the club from distance, a strike that ultimately decided the game.

Key FPL notes: No midfielder has had as many big chances (six) or scored more goals (four) than Antoine Semenyo (7.8m), while only two have had more than his 14 shots. He is the second-highest scoring player in Fantasy Premier League (FPL) with 48 points. Marcos Senesi (4.9m) is the highest-scoring defender in Fantasy with 44 points. He has three clean sheets and two assists and is the only defender to return defensive contribution (DefCon) points in every single Gameweek so far this season.

First of all, for me, it was never a free-kick. Much too soft, the Leeds boss told BBC Radio Leeds. It's the first time this foul was given at Premier League level as a free-kick and in a most dangerous position. Yes, you could argue that it was unnecessary to give the referee a decision to make because the player was on the way away from the box.

"Arne Slot's side look so vulnerable defensively," said BBC Sport football expert Chris Sutton. "I covered their defeat at Crystal Palace last weekend and Palace could have gone 4-0 up, no word of a lie. "Alisson went off injured against Galatasaray, and if he is missing it is not going to help. We know Liverpool can hurt Chelsea but it is the other end they have to worry about."

Pellegrini, who was previously linked with a summer move to West Ham, has barely featured for Roma this season, with new head coach Gian Piero Gasperini not counting on his captain. And because of this, it has been decided that he will be allowed to leave in January, as reported by TEAMtalk (via Leeds United News). Pellegrini was not included in the Italy squad for their 2026 World Cup qualifiers in September,

After six matches, Leeds sit 11th in the Premier League standings, which is a fair reflection on how their season has gone so far. They have looked very good at times, although there has also been some shaky moments. In particular, there are concerns about Leeds' attacking threat, although some of those have been quietened by five goals in their last two matches (3-1 vs Wolves, 2-2 vs Bournemouth).

I never got a feeling he was going to leave. Farke made him feel wanted. I don't think that'll [new contract] be far off. He's a fabulous player. He does attract interest. You know, Leeds have to be careful. We know the likes of Brighton have looked at him in the past and you know, if they lose a Jan Paul van Hecke, would they look at Struijk?
