TalkSPORT pundit Andy Townsend has claimed Leeds United would have to spend a ‘serious amount of money’ if they are to survive this season. The Whites are battling alongside Burnley and Everton to secure their Premier League safety, with Leeds moving out of the bottom three on Sunday thanks to a last gasp draw with Brighton.
However, both Burnley and Everton have games in hand over Leeds this week, with the former making the trip to Aston Villa and the latter hosting Crystal Palace. Those results will dictate which sides have destiny in their own hands ahead of the final day on Sunday.
Leeds have struggled massively with squad depth over the course of this season, with injuries having played a major role in their disappointing campaign. Only two new players were brought in during the summer window, which has sparked frustration towards the board in recent weeks.
