Will Leeds United need to sell Tarik Muharemovic due to SCR rules?
Tarik Muharemovic has become one of Leeds United's biggest assets.
The Whites signed the centre-back for 34million in the summer and he has exceeded expectations in LS11.
Concerns have grown about the Bosnia and Herzegovina international's future at the West Yorkshire outfit, given his monumental rise.
Bayern Munich have been linked with a move for Muharemovic after his heroics at Elland Road.
The 23-year-old defender has only played under Daniel Farke for a few months but is already attracting interest from top sides.
While the Peacocks certainly control the former Sassuolo star's future after tying him down until 2031, it remains to be seen whether they could be forced to sell him next summer.
Do Leeds United need to sell Tarik Muharemovic to balance books?
Bayern have Muharemovic on their shortlist ahead of next summer.
Paraag Marathe admitted in the summer that the shift from Profitability and Sustainability Rules to Squad Cost Ratio would restrict the Whites' short-term transfer flexibility.
The West Yorkshire outfit spent a significant sum on the likes of James Trafford and Muharemovic in the summer and it will be interesting to see how that has affected the finances.
For now, it doesn't look like the Peacocks are under threat of facing financial issues and Adam Pope isn't worried about the prospect of the Bosnia and Herzegovina ace leaving anytime soon.
Speaking on Don't Go To Bed Just Yet on 23 October, the BBC Radio Leeds journalist said, "Would they need to sell a player to stay at the right side of the SCR line? As it stands, I don't think we're in that position yet."
Why Daniel Farke favourite will be looking over his shoulder at Elland Road
Muharemovic has formed a formidable partnership with Nico Elvedi and James Justin at Leeds.
Farke has relied on the three as his preferred centre-backs this season, as the German manager sticks with the 5-2-2-1 formation.
Joe Rodon's injury has sidelined him for most of the season so far, but he's expected to return in the coming weeks.
Once the Wales international does return to full fitness, he'll certainly have a tough time getting back into the starting lineup.
Even Jaka Bijol has struggled for minutes at the West Yorkshire outfit this season due to Elvedi's impressive form.
Farke will have tough decisions to make when everyone is fit again and only time will tell whether Rodon plays a big part during the busy festive period.
