12 months left on contract: Leeds should battle local rivals to sign 25-time international defender

Jansson suspended

Former Torino and Malmo defender Jansson still has to serve a two-match ban for his accumulation of yellow cards, which will see him miss matches against Bolton and Port Vale.

That leaves just Pennington and Liam Cooper available to Christiansen, without any kind of first-team back up and a replacement is obviously required.

Signing Wilson would see Leeds bolster their options at centre-back, with the likelihood being that the defender would become first choice.

In other Leeds transfer news, the Whites should sign this Premier League left-back.
