Will Max Wöber still be at Leeds at the end of the transfer window?

Transcript

00:00Max Fober, you're not convinced, but Daniel Farker does appear to think that he's committed

00:05to the cause and that he's here for the foreseeable, just like Brendan Aronson.

00:09Discuss.

00:10Look, if right now there was a knock at the door and I opened it and it was Max Fober

00:16and he said, Graham, can I come in?

00:17And I'd say, of course, the door's always open.

00:20And he'd say, I'm convinced by the project.

00:23I love the squad.

00:24I think it's great.

00:25I'm really enjoying it.

00:26I'm here.

00:27I want to be here for the season.

00:28Then maybe I'd take a different view.

00:29But as it stands, he hasn't come and knocked on my door.

00:31He has knocked on Daniel Farker's door and said all of the aforementioned and Farker's

00:37buying it, but I'm not.

00:41And the reason for that, Joe, is what we've talked about before.

00:44From the Bundesliga and the Euros to the bench in the championship, he's come back to Leeds

00:50where he's behind Pascal Stroik and he's behind Junior Firpo as it stands.

00:55Now maybe with Firpo's injury record, maybe there's a chance there he gets in at left

00:59back.

01:00Maybe Pascal Stroik has an absolute stinker, can't see it, and he gets in at centre back.

01:05A year ago, he was probably nailed on to start for Leeds and he might have even had the armband

01:11if Cooper wasn't in the team because he captained the team against Barnsley in a friendly, but

01:15he didn't want it.

01:17So why does he suddenly want it?

01:19I'm partially swayed by the fact that in Germany, the club offered Brendan Aronson the chance

01:24to speak to the local press and had a chance to explain himself and he said, yeah, I'll

01:29do it.

01:30And he answered all the questions.

01:32Some of the questions weren't the most pleasant that he'll face in his career, but he answered

01:36them all and he didn't shirk and I think fair play to him and I'm convinced that he actually

01:41does want to be at Leeds.

01:42Whatever his reasons, I think he's here and he'll be here for the season and I think he

01:47wants to be here.

01:48Max Fober had the chance to speak to us in Germany and he declined.

01:53He didn't want to do it.

01:55So that makes me wonder why.

01:58I think there's still the possibility that either Leeds' asking price comes down ever

02:04so slightly if they've got a potential replacement lined up, obviously a cheaper replacement,

02:11or Munch and Gladbach go, ah, you know what?

02:15We did have 10 million all along.
