LUFC Warnock - No players in before window closes

Neil Warnock says he will not be signing any players before the transfer window closes this week.

The transfer window closes on Friday and Warnock says it will probably be September before they sign anyone else, with someone coming in on loan.

Speaking on Yorkshire Radio, Warnock said, "We won`t be buying anybody. I think the most we can expect is a loan signing if we can, going into September.

"We will have to be very lucky to get through with the squad we currently have."


Warnock has brought in ten players so far this summer and he is currently trying to negotiate a deal with El Hadji Diouf, who is currently at Elland Road on a non-contract basis.

The Leeds boss has been fortunate with the emergence of youngster Sam Byram, who once again made an impact from the bench in the win at Peterborough on Saturday.

Fellow youngster Dominic Poleon came on to mark his championship debut and Warnock says he is working with a great bunch of lads but a few injuries could leave them short. "They are a great bunch of lads. Young Sam (Byram) did well and so did Dominic (Poleon). We just need to be very lucky with injuries," added Warnock.

Leeds have already lost Paul Green for up to eight weeks this season after suffering a knee injury in the opening day win over Wolves and he has joined long-term absentees Leigh Bromby and Davide Somma on the sidelines.
