It may only be November, but it appears the silly season for transfer rumours has started early. Case in point is the latest news that Leeds United have taken their first steps in trying to secure AC Milan midfielder Charles De Ketelaere in the January transfer window.
There are claims the Whites are "reaching out" to the Serie A club and could be trying to do a deal. Given Leeds never got closet to signing the player in the summer as he chose Milan, it would be a major surprise for the club to bring him in now, even more so given the fee it would take to land him.
The 21-year-old hasn't enjoyed his time in Milan after joining them in the summer for a reported fee of £30 million after finding just one assist and no goals in 18 appearances this season.
