Leeds United are understood to be ready to assess the transfer situation after Patrick Struijk’s injury blow, according to Graham Smyth.

Leeds United could look to make loan signings in the transfer window
The Whites, currently atop the Championship standings, are facing a significant challenge with Struijk’s recent injury sidelining him for at least three weeks.
This situation necessitates a strategic approach to the January transfer window, particularly focusing on bolstering their defensive line.
Farke has acknowledged the need to monitor transfer opportunities, suggesting an active market strategy to ensure the team maintains its competitive edge.
Given their position, the Whites should consider targeting loan players to reinforce their squad without significant long-term financial commitments.
Loan deals offer the flexibility to bring in experienced or promising players who can immediately contribute to the first team.
Such moves could provide the necessary depth and quality to help Leeds secure a promotion spot, potentially making all the difference in a tight race for the top.
