The uefa transfer window is still open its only england that has closed the transfer window early.

The scottish window closes on friday the 31st hence why Lafferty has gone from hearts to rangers.

All the major leagues in europe can still buy players until the 31st August.

Phil Hay - Reports in Sweden of Russian interest in Pontus Jansson. It's true that Leeds did receive a bid from Krasnodar (somewhere close to £10m). Bid was turned down.

I’ve taken this from another Leeds forum. Surely this makes more sense than accepting a bid? We are down to the bare bones including Jansson, so to sell him would be madness, imo.

Just seen that elsewhere and its good news the Club have turned down the bid.

Accepting £5m for Jansson would be indefensible by Radz. For a start it's far too low and secondly it's a position we need strengthening not severely weakening even more.

Not sure Bielsa truly believes that we don't need a CB, he's just been told we won't get one. What happened to this £20m Radz was going to spend on Conte?

According to Phil Hay the bid was around 10 mill and the Club turned it down (as per above posts).

I hope that's true, but I never know anymore. The good thing is that it looks like he'll still be here in September.

Think we all do, one thing we cant do is stop other Clubs enquiring about players but we can hope the Club can say No.
