Daniel WakeHis side are pushing for promotion to the Premier League at the second time of asking and are currently in the same Championship points after 18 games at this stage last season.
If Leeds fail to gain promotion, then a number of star players could leave, following exits for Archie Gray, Crysencio Summerville and Georginio Rutter in the summer. In January, Joe Gelhardt has already been linked with a loan move or a permanent exitwith Rangers being one of several teams interested in the young forward.
Meantime, Junior Firpo is in the final months of his contract at Elland Road and could leave for free if the club remains in the second division.

defensive Max Wober also continued to be challenged with a takedown in 2025 after failing to secure an exit in the summer, and now a new update has emerged.
Leeds in talks to leave Max Wober in possible Red Bull swap deal
According to the reporter Graeme Bailey, speaking to Leeds United News49ers Enterprises are in regular contact and talks about a possible exit from Leeds for Wober.
RB Salzburg and RB Leipzig have been named as potential suitors and Bailey adds that players at those clubs could replace Wober in a swap deal if the Austria international leaves, although the Whites believe Wober still has ” big role to play”.
“We have been told that Leeds, now part of the Red Bull network, are in regular contact and as part of those talks, there have been discussions about Wober and a possible loan move to Salzburg.
“Wober is concerned about his lack of playing time, but Leeds generally believe he has a big role to play. However, there are players at both Leipzig and Salzburg who are available and could help cover for Wober while bolstering Leeds’ options.
“We’re told talks are ongoing, and even if Wober doesn’t leave – we could well see players arriving at Elland Road from elsewhere in the Red Bull network.”
It appears that Leeds’ links with the Red Bull network could lead to deals with the likes of Leipzig and Salzburg in the future, even if Wober remains in Yorkshire.
