LUFCAT: The more I think about it the more I think that this is a good deal for Leeds. Chris Wood did a job for us and good luck to him but it is not worth keeping someone who wants away and we can buy a lot with £15m.

Welshwizard5: Even though he scored plenty last season, he is one of those players who contributes very little else. Plenty of players out there who can offer similar and far less than £15m. Good business for Leeds.

Ellie: He doesn't have the pace for the Premier League. It's why West Brom released him and he wont have gotten any quicker 5 years on.

One transfer that is set to go through today is Chris Wood from Leeds United to Burnley for about £15m.

The 25-year-old striker has scored 44 goals in 88 appearances for Leeds since joining from Leicester City on a four-year deal for an undisclosed fee in July 2015.

Wood ruled himself out of Leeds' match against Sunderland on Saturday.

Andrew Rayner: I don't think Man Utd would be as effective as they currently are with Zlatan Ibrahimovic starting but he's well worth a squad place.

Lorenzo Menace: Someone to fill the Fellaini role when we need to throw on a big man late in a game.

Manchester United

Manchester United expect 35-year-old striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic to sign a new contract to stay at Old Trafford as early as this week, ESPN is reporting.

Free agent Ibrahimovic, who helped United win the EFL Cup and the Europa League last season, is recovering from a knee ligament injury which is expected to keep him out until 2018.

However, ESPN claim the new contract will be announced earlier than anticipated due to the former Sweden international's quick recovery.
