Leeds line up ace Carole
By Phil Hay

Leeds United are set to begin their summer transfer spree after lining up a deal for Brighton midfielder Sebastien Carole.
The young Frenchman, pictured right, is poised to become United's first close-season signing after catching the eye of Kevin Blackwell last season.
United have been in negotiations with Brighton and are still working to finalise an agreement with Carole, but the winger is expected to complete his transfer before the start of pre-season training on July 3.

From today Evening Post. They are usually spot on with transfer news for us.

.....and after years of complaining they had all their players robbed, poached etc.

Did it mention a sum?

 

[Superphil]

Better be a lot

 

[Easy 10]

That news has done very little to improve my morning.

 

[Starry]

Nope, it's just that little bit. Says the full story will be in tonight's issue.

 

[Giant Seagull]

noooo

Carole's end product is not good enough, but his dribbling skills were one of the few highlights of last season. £500k and I'd be satisfied.

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

hmmm, would be an asset in league 1, but seemed to give up half way though the season

 

[Trigger]

I can't imagine his relegation release clause (someone definitely said he had one) would be that much to be honest...

 

[blockhseagull]

If we got a reasonable fee i wouldn't be that bothered, especially if we actually get some of the fee to spend on our 'striker'

 

[Wozza]

If Leeds had any ambition they'd be buying Premiership standard players.

 

[Da Man Clay]

Not a massive loss really, Id have Frutos over him every day of the week. Carole is brillant for dribbling and skills but has no end product at all and has the tendancy to try and beat the same player four times.

EDIT: Allthough he is better than the last palyer you got from us.

Ssshhhh, this one cannot go to tribunal either.

he could of been a real flair player in league 1 , we wont see the cash and he wont be replaced . 25 / 1 looks a bit optimistic

He would have been cut in half on a weekly basis and on League 1 pitches its very hard to play that sort of game he plays. At the end of last season when the pitches had cut up you could see that he couldn't cope.

Shame as he could have been electric in League One, but if I'm honest I never expected him to be staying.

Quite. I would have thought alot of pitches are just as good, if not better than Withdean. It was a bog after Xmas time.

Quite true but the pitches cut up a hell of alot quicker, I dont think he could cope with how physical it is aswell.

Leon coped. If this is true, then I think it is a big loss to us, game wise. But the money (??) might well come in handy.
