Sources: Leeds United tell Gotts to find new club as exodus intensifies
Leeds United have told Robbie Gotts to find another club as their talent exodus intensifies, Football Insider can exclusively reveal.
A Leeds source has now told Football Insider that Gotts will become their latest young player to seek pastures news amid an overhaul of their set-up.
This site broke the news on 25th June that United have also told Niall Huggins, 20, he can leave this summer.
This comes following the permanent transfer of Oliver Casey to Blackpool, news of which was first revealed by Football Insider on 8th June.
Like Casey and Huggins, Gotts has emerged from the fabled Leeds academy to play for the first team.
He has made three senior appearances, the last of which came in the EFL Cup defeat to Hull City in September of last year.
It now appears that will be Harrogate-born Gotts' final match in a United jersey.
United do not regard the versatile midfielder, who can also play at right-back, as capable of forcing his way into Marcelo Bielsa's team amid increasingly strong competition.
That will be a bitter blow for Gotts, who has been on Leeds' books since the age of seven.
He graduated through the Under-18s and Under-23s to be handed his first-team debut by Bielsa.
The long-term deal in February 2019 suggested the Argentie and the Leeds staff regarded him as a first teamer of the future.
