Pundit in 'no doubt' Leeds United will rebuff permanent interest in young on-loan defender

Carlton Palmer does not see Leeds United selling Charlie Cresswell on a permanent basis despite interest from elsewhere. Reports from Alan Nixon over the weekend claimed that Norwich City were keeping tabs on his situation should Leeds decide he is surplus to requirements at Elland Road.

Cresswell is currently on a season-long-loan at Millwall, where he has had a mixed start to life in his first full year in senior football. The 20-year-old began the campaign in superb form with two goals on his debut but has found the going tough in recent weeks.

Gary Rowett has left the centre-back out of his last two matchday squads after reverting from a back five to a back four, with Jake Cooper and Shaun Hutchinson his current preferred partnership. That said, Leeds are still thought to see Cresswell as a key player for the future, having penned a new four-year-deal last summer.
