It’s at all times going to take one thing vital to persuade any crew to half with a key participant on deadline day, and it seems that’s the rationale why Leeds United failed with late curiosity in Sheffield United defender John Egan.
The Blades are at present prime of the Championship and look well-placed to push for a return to the top-flight, while reports have quoted their supervisor Paul Heckingbottom as saying that the potential transfer was an absolute non-starter.
The 29-year-old was a key determine in Sheffield United’s spectacular 2019/20 marketing campaign and clearly has the standard to play within the Premier League, however it seems that a possible price of £13m simply wasn’t sufficient that late within the day.
Egan has captained the crew just a few occasions this season and changing him on deadline day would’ve been a troublesome job, however Leeds United might’ve completed with some reinforcements on the again as a result of dangerous luck with accidents from a few of their gamers.
It’s additionally unlikely that the place on Egan could have shifted within the winter window both, so this one does seem like lifeless within the water.
