Leeds United transfer deadline day recap
Key Events
- Kamara and Gruev arrive
- Drameh goes on loan
- Sinisterra future
Drameh goes on loan
Cody Drameh will be leaving Elland Road for the third time as he joins Birmingham City on a season-long loan.
There’s an option to buy for the Blues, who have moved quickly to land the young defender after the arrival of Djed Spence at Leeds.
Drameh’s contract is up at the end of this season, therefore it’s unlikely he’ll be seen in a Leeds shirt again.
Slim chance of Gnonto exit
The YEP understands there is a slim chance of Willy Gnonto joining Everton today, despite reports to the contrary.
