Some of you have been sending BBC Sport questions about Leeds United using our ‘Ask Me Anything’ form.
Some focus on a potential summer move for Harvey Elliott and whether that's realistic.
Bearing in mind Aston Villa have an obligation to buy Elliott for £35m from Liverpool after his loan spell at the end of the season should he make 10 appearances, I would think that the valuation would be too high for Leeds United if they wanted him.
Elliott, 22, has a year left on his contract at Anfield where the hierarchy have shown they are content to sell. However, Villa have effectively put the deal and Elliott's career on hold by not playing him with head coach Unai Emery admitting the clash between the sporting and business decision is damaging the attacking midfielder.
In the plus column Elliott could be seen a decent signing because he has made more than 200 senior appearances for Liverpool, Fulham, Blackburn Rovers and now Aston Villa. He has scored 23 goals and has Champions League experience. However, it should be noted that of his 99 Premier League appearances he has started 36.
His playing time will be limited for the rest of this campaign as it is understood that Villa chose not to terminate Elliott's loan from Liverpool during the January window, to avoid paying an early termination penalty. His ability, as testifed by Emery, is not in question and the England Under-21 international has time on his side to keep improving.
But Leeds United's priorities would appear to lie elsewhere this summer. A top class goalkeeper and a striker – bearing in mind they were prepared to spend a similar amount to Elliot's valuation on Wolves' forward Jorgen Strand Larsen before his move to Crystal Palace – is where I would expect to see the bulk of a transfer kitty spent. I say that because the midfield is where United have a lot of resource with Sean Longstaff and Anton Stach contracted until 2029 and Ao Tanaka until 2028. I believe Elliott would enhance the squad as it stands, in my opinion, but at this stage it is a hypothetical question as to whether he is under consideration with Leeds' Premier League status needing securing.
