da stake casino： Leeds United are desperate for a goalscoring striker.
There are no two ways about it, the Whites dominate the xG league table, yet they currently sit third in the Championship 12 points behind where they supposedly should be.
This is undoubtedly down to their lack of finishing ability in front of goal, and one way to remedy that would be to buy a new striker.
One man who Leeds were linked with over the summer was Dwight Gayle.
However, the latest update from Leeds Live may mean they have to forget about Gayle ever lining up at Elland Road.

What’s the story
Leeds Live hosted a Q&A session about the club on Tuesday, and understandably, the question was asked about Gayle as some fans remained hopeful that a deal could be done.
However, Beren Cross’ response quickly shot down any possibility of the Yorkshire club signing the Newcastle man.
The journalist wrote a rather long response to a question about external investment and Pablo Hernandez’s injury, but the part we’re concerned with is right at the bottom where he says.
“As for Gayle, no chance. Financial Fair Play would be obliterated.”
Radrizzani must be blamed
There’s only one man you can point the finger at for Leeds’ current predicament with FFP, and that’s Andrea Radrizzani.
Why being the away goalkeeper at Leeds is the toughest job in football in the video below…
The Italian has previously admitted that he’s made mistakes in terms of wages and transfers before, and now those are coming back to haunt him.
If the chairman had been a little savvier in the past, perhaps Leeds could have made this deal for the 29-year-old happen.
However, due to the mistakes he has made in the past the Whites are out of the running for a striker who would certainly have improved their promotion chances. After all, he scored 24 goals last term in the Championship.
Leeds moved on as many as 31 players either on a temporary or permanent basis in the summer, something that provides evidence of how many surplus players they had on their books.
It says a lot, though, that they still don’t have the means to bring in players on a permanent basis.
Radrizzani has helped changed Leeds’ fortunes in terms of league position but they still appear to be reeling on the financial front.
