Leeds United have reportedly pulled out of plans to take part in a Premier League pre-season tournament in the United States. The Athletic claims the Whites are set to pull out of the proposed tournament with Fulham set to take their place.
Last weekend's 5-1 defeat to Crystal Palace has seen the Whites goal difference take a battering in their fight to stave off relegation, with their focus now solely on surviving in the top flight. Javi Gracia's side have shown signs of recovery and victory at the weekend would have taken them five points clear of the drop.
However, as things stand, Leeds have just a two point cushion to the drop zone and eight games to save their Premier League status. The Whites' participation in the aforementioned USA tournament, were said to be dependant on their divisional status next season.
