Touchdown Woodman from Preston North Finish will rely on what occurs over the course of the enterprise finish of the season as a result of if Leeds are relegated, there’ll undoubtedly be a reassessment of their priorities.
If not, the Championship aspect are prone to discover it very tough certainly to show down a proposal for a participant who stays one in all their highest earners.
