Six-figure offer rejected: Why Leeds must battle rivals to solve problem area with 31-year-old – view
Bargain price
Leeds owner Andrea Radrizzani’s wallet is likely to be somewhat lighter after the club has confirmed deals for nine new first-team stars, which include permanent moves for Pontus Jansson and Hadi Sacko.
Combine that with the £20million re-purchasing of Elland Road, and it is easy to see why Christiansen could be on the lookout for bargains or loans instead of splashing the cash.
With a £200,000 bid rejected, an offer of around £500,000 is still seriously cheap and could be accepted by Blackburn should Leeds table such a figure.
