The transfer window has been open for just over a month now and activity is starting to intensify across the country. We’re less than four weeks away from the start of the 2024/25 Championship season, with squads starting to take shape as pre-season friendlies come thick and fast.
It’s no different at Leeds United, and while much of the focus has been on outgoings so far, a trio of senior options have arrived in the form of Joe Rodon, Alex Cairns and Joe Rothwell. But money is relatively tight this summer and the books have had to be balanced via the sale of some first-team players including academy star Archie Gray.
Below, the YEP has taken a look at ins and outs across the Championship since the end of last season to see who has spent big and who has cash in the bank. Take a look to see how Leeds have done so far.
