Southampton ‘eyeing’ Leeds United man, Club ‘fear the worst’ for £22m Liverpool and Everton target

Leeds United head into Sunday’s clash with Crystal Palace looking to improve on last weekend’s 0-0 draw against Aston Villa.

The Whites currently sit 12th in the table, with nine points from seven matches, but come up against an Eagles side who are languishing just above the relegation zone in 17th.

Speaking ahead of the clash, Whites boss Jesse Marsch said: “We know there’s a lot of quality in this league. For us, I think we just try to stay focused in the moment and in the match. If we do that effectively we can control the outcomes. I have a lot of respect for Palace. I think Patrick Vieira is a fantastic manager.”
