Will Sinisterra still be a Leeds player after the transfer deadline?

Transcript

00:00 What is the YEP's understanding of the Sinisterra situation, potential loans, because we've

00:04 seen him linked with the likes of Brentford and Finord and all that sort of thing.

00:10 Even though Daniel Farker spoke with quite a lot of almost certainty, he couldn't guarantee

00:16 anything because nobody can guarantee anything in a transfer window, not when, you know,

00:21 sidees are chucking 50, 100 million around.

00:26 I'm not saying that that's the case here, but the things to remember in the Sinisterra

00:30 case is that he had a clause.

00:33 Leeds believed that the clause has expired, but it's never felt to me like Leeds have

00:36 been certain that he will still be here come Saturday.

00:41 I'm still not getting the sense from Leeds.

00:44 Nobody is saying Sinisterra will be here.

00:47 I'm getting a big sense of them doing all they can to keep Sinisterra and to convince

00:53 Sinisterra to be at Leeds.

00:55 For Sinisterra's career, he might see it as a wasted year.

00:59 I don't know.

01:00 We've not heard from the players' camp.

01:02 This is me surmising, but I think what Leeds will have to do, if Sinisterra is to go somewhere,

01:09 Leeds will have to explain the situation that led to him going.

01:13 At the moment, all we can work off is this sense that they're not altogether concrete

01:18 on him staying at Leeds.

01:20 If he was to go, I'm convinced that Leeds would bring another in.

01:25 So I don't think they'll leave themselves short there.

01:27 It would be a bitter blow because the prospect of him playing in the Championship is tantalising,

01:31 isn't it?

01:32 It's like on Football Manager when you get a player that you should never really get

01:35 for your club and you can't really believe it.

01:38 The other thing to remember in all of this is that Sinisterra, like the others, had a

01:46 big, big wage reduction.

01:48 So he'll be playing on, I don't know, half, 60% of the wages that he would have been getting

01:53 last year in the Prem and that he could get if he went to a Premier League club or somewhere

01:59 else.

02:01 So let's wait and see what happens on the Sinisterra one.

02:04 At the minute, there's not a great deal of clarity, so there's not a great deal we can

02:06 say on it.

02:08 But it just feels like something could still crop up there because we're not getting a

02:14 solid concrete.

02:16 definitely staying at Allen Road.
