Leeds haven’t really had any reason but not to focus on themselves in recent months, especially since the window slammed shut.
They’ve welcomed in their six new arrivals by soaring to the top of the Championship, sitting best placed for automatic promotion as things stand.
The Whites have been a joy to watch in terms of their possession, amassing over 60% of the ball from their eight matches in 2019/20.
Issues have arisen surrounding their ability to finish and that was the case last Saturday as they hit the post and missed a penalty in a 1-1 draw with Derby.
The Rams drew against the odds but despite attentions also being on Charlton this week, there may also be an eye on Coventry.
That isn’t just for Victor Orta who is seemingly in charge of transfer negotiations, but also for the club’s supporters.
This is because a potential new recruit could be in action for the Sky Blues.
Last week, Sam McCallum was reported to be on Leeds’ radar, a player who has more than caught the eye in League One this term.
It’s so far been a breakthrough campaign for the 19-year-old who has featured at right back and left back, proving himself to be a versatile option.
The teenager has appeared five times in 2019/20 and will be one of the players Coventry look to have an influence on proceedings against Rotherham.
McCallum is someone who can get up and down the flanks and that’s influenced in the number of times he’s fouled at 1.8 times per outing, according to WhoScored.
For a full-back that’s considerably high and proves he’s a livewire worth keeping tabs on.
Strong in the air, he’s won two aerial duels per game but he also has a no-nonsense nature to him with three clearances on average every match.
At the moment, the Coventry man is in fine form and saved one of his best performances for Burton Albion last weekend, winning 3 aerial duels and 4 interceptions, via WhoScored.
If he continues in that manner, it wouldn’t be a great surprise if Leeds did try to further their interest.
