Leeds Deadline Day transfer round-up: Cameron Archer battle, £50m Gnonto claim

Mon 3 February 2025 13:35, UK
Leeds United have less than 12 hours on their hands if they want to strengthen their squad for the rest of the season.

The Championship table-toppers have had a quiet winter transfer window so far, with not even a single player coming through the doors at Elland Road.

In terms of outgoings, Sonny Perkins has made his loan move to Leyton Orient permanent, while Joe Gelhardt has joined Hull City on loan in search of regular playing time.

While the clock is quickly ticking out, it is still too early to rule out transfer surprises in West Yorkshire.

Here, MOT Leeds News rounds up all the transfer news from deadline day (3 February).
