LUFC City to test Leeds resolve in Delph bid
Ken Bates might be about to be tested with Manchester City rumoured to be now ready to make a bid for Leeds youngster Fabian Delph.
Leeds chairman Ken Bates has said all along that he would not let his young midfield star leave cheaply and last January when a couple of clubs made bids his response was to say that 'Leeds don`t deal in petty cash`.
With Manchester City continue to spend money like it`s going out of business Bates resolve could now be severely tested.
Leeds manager Simon Grayson said last week that has much as he doesn`t want to sell the England under 21 international he wouldn`t want to stand in his way if a Premiership club came knocking with the asking price.
The Daily Mirror are reporting that City are ready to offer £10 million for the wonder kid and one option would be that Leeds would then keep the player on loan for the season.

I think we will get a lot more than we wished for from Man City, £10 million and a season long loan sounds a great deal.
