Leeds United 'actively pursuing' forward and left-back as Marsch offers transfer update

Leeds United are assessing a number of left-back options after deeming it necessary to step into the transfer market, according to head coach Jesse Marsch. The Whites are without a senior left-back at present following the injury Junior Firpo picked up in the pre-season friendly clash against Blackpool earlier this month.

Firpo has been ruled out for the next seven weeks and looks set to miss the first month of the season at the very least. And, with Stuart Dallas currently occupying the treatment room with a fractured femur, Marsch are without a recognised option on the left side of defence.

Leif Davis could be the man to start the club’s pre-season clash with Crystal Palace on Friday in Perth and he will have the opportunity to stake a claim for the spot. However, Marsch admits the club are looking at their options.
