There are less than two weeks to go in the January transfer window, and Leeds United still haven’t brought in any new players.

Marcelo Bielsa has assured fans that Victor Orta is trying his best to bring players in, but as of yet, it hasn’t happened.

Of course, that could all change, and one journalist thinks it’s just a matter of time before they address a real problem position.

What’s been said then?

Phil Hay was hosting a post-match Q&A session after the Whites’ disappointing 1-0 loss to QPR.

Understandably, plenty of questions were asked about United’s transfer plans for the rest of the month, and Hay stated that he thinks they’ll spring into action.

“They have to sign a forward. Absolutely have to. And I think they will. It would be madness to exit this window with the squad as it is. I’d say there’s an argument for another centre mid. They’re very short in that position minus Forshaw.”

All on Orta

It’s so blatantly obvious that Leeds need a striker considering they’ve now failed to score in each of their last three games in all competitions. Patrick Bamford’s goal drought stretches all the way back to before Christmas as the last time he found the net was against Fulham at Craven Cottage.

It’s abundantly clear that United need a forward, but only one man can make that happen.

Orta has a lot of pressure on his shoulders from a number of different directions. Leeds are desperate for reinforcements, but Bielsa has been very clear that he only wants the right players through the door.

Whether or not they can get a striker in remains to be seen, but if they don’t their Director of Football will have a lot to answer for.

In other news, Danny Pugh has been discussing what a takeover could mean for Leeds United.
