The Yorkshire Evening Post's daily transfer blog will keep you up to date with all the latest business from LS11 and beyond this January.

Leeds United have tabled a bid of £15m for exciting young RB Salzburg midfielder Brenden Aaronson, according to The Athletic.

Aged 21 years old, Aaronson has Champions League experience and has notched an impressive ten goal contributions across 26 appearances in all competitions this season.

The Austrian Bundesliga leaders have reportedly turned the offer down, and the Whites will need to bid again if they hope to secure the youngster's services.
