BAD NEWS: Leeds United Prodigy set to put dagger into Fans heart after recent update confirming Player reportedly on his way out of Elland Road after a frustrating Season.
The young defender, who quickly rose through the ranks at Leeds United and showcased his talent with the England under-21 team, now faces uncertainty under manager Daniel Farke. With stiff competition from players like Joe Rodon and Pascal Struijk, his playing time has diminished.
Speculations suggest that his time at Elland Road might be nearing its end, with reports indicating that Leeds is seeking around £3m plus add-ons for his transfer. French club Toulouse has shown interest, along with Hertha Berlin and Hannover from Germany. A move could offer Cresswell a fresh start after limited appearances last season.
Although linked with transfers in January to clubs like Blackburn Rovers and Middlesbrough, he stayed with Leeds but struggled to break into the first team under Farke. As a product of Leeds’ youth system, his departure would bring financial gain under FFP regulations but could leave a sentimental void for the club.
Having been nurtured by Leeds for over a decade, Cresswell was once seen as a potential future captain. At 21, he still has untapped potential and might seek a new challenge to further his development.
