Leeds United could send Charlie Cresswell out on loan in the January transfer window.

That is according to The Sun, which has named the clubs who are interested in signing Cresswell in the middle of the season.

So, what has been reported about Leeds United defender Charlie Cresswell? Let’s take a look.

Charlie Cresswell linked with Leeds United exit

Well, according to The Sun, Leeds United central defender Charlie Cresswell is a player in demand.

The British tabloid has claimed that Southampton and Middlesbrough are keen on signing Cresswell on a loan deal in the January transfer window.

The 21-year-old central defender is struggling for playing time at the West Yorkshire club at the moment. Leeds head coach Daniel Farke could decide to send the youngster out on loan again in January.

Cresswell spent last season on loan with Millwall. The youngster has struggled to establish himself in the Leeds first team this season.

Charlie Cresswell should leave Leeds

In my view, Leeds United defender Charlie Cresswell should leave Elland Road on a loan deal in the January transfer window.

I do not think that there is any point in Cresswell staying at Leeds and not getting any playing time.

The centre-back has made one start and three substitute appearances in the Championship for Leeds this season. He has played twice in the Carabao Cup.

Leeds head coach Daniel Farke does not seem to rate the youngster. After all, he is not playing him at all at the moment.

Cresswell is a very good and promising young defender who could flourish at Southampton or Middlesbrough.

However, Leeds should be wary of sending the 21-year-old to Southampton in the middle of the season. After all, the Saints are one of the main challengers for promotion to the Premier League.
