After a lengthy chase, Leeds United will lose another exceptional player as the super spectacular has ultimately agrees to sign a new contract with….
The out-of-favour defender is being courted by Turkish clubs, according to a Sun writer via his Patreon [4 January]. Transfer agreements must be finalized on Friday.
Worrall was not signed by Leeds, who had hoped to recruit him during the January transfer window on a loan. However, Forest was only considering a permanent relocation up until the last day of the window.
Not worth Leeds United’s hassle
Leeds’ time was not worth it to pursue the signing of Worrall, especially as Forest just decided to change their minds at the last minute. There is a good reason why the defender at The City Ground has descended in the hierarchy.
Worrall has only made five Premier League starts this season, while Murillo, Andrew Omobamidele, and Wily Boly are all preferred over the Englishman.
With Liam Cooper, Pascal Struijk, Charlie Cresswell, and Ethan Ampadu filling in at midfield, Daniel Farke would be far better off.
Daniel Farke guided Norwich City to two promotions in the Premier League.
Ben Godfrey was a target for the Whites as well. Despite facing a dearth of playing opportunities this season, Sean Dyche has acknowledged his professionalism and demonstrated his abilities during Everton’s 2-0 triumph over Burnley.
With a hectic second half of the season ahead of us, another center-back would have been ideal at Elland Road, but at this point in the game, panic purchases are not necessary. Leeds is still very much a contender for advancement.
