Caoimhin Kelleher<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>With a \u00a340m price tag, this could be the direction needed for a newly-promoted side to remain in the top flight.<\/p>\n<p>Along with bringing in players though, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leedsunited.news\/club\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Leeds<\/a> boss will need to retain his players, but one is seemingly looking for his exit.<\/p>\n<p><img

Leeds after Farke target revealed<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s becoming obvious in the remaining months of the season that the German hasn\u2019t stuck to his promise that Joseph is important to the
