Leeds United, currently leading the Championship, are reportedly interested in signing Aston Villa's Louie Barry. Barry, a 21-year-old forward, impressed during a loan spell in League One, scoring 16 goals in 24 appearances. While Leeds face competition from fellow promotion chasers Sheffield United and Sunderland, as well as Middlesbrough and Derby County, Aston Villa are reportedly open to loaning Barry to a Championship club for the remainder of the season.
Leeds United won't be resting on their laurels despite being top of the Championship with Daniel Farke's side pushing for promotion back to the Premier League. The league leaders have already been linked with a number of players despite the window having opened just a few days ago.
Barry has only ever had loan spells in League One and League Two with Ipswich Town, MK Dons, Swindon Town, Salford City and most recently Stockport. It would be a new test for the highly coveted youngster, but one that he seems to be ready for after his great record in the third tier. Middlesbrough and Derby County have also been mentioned as possible destinations for the former Barcelona man. With a lot of competition for Barry, it could take a while to find a resolution to this transfer saga.
"I know I was only here on loan but you made me feel like I was one of your own which was a special feeling. Hopefully this isn't the last time we cross paths, but I will be a fan for life now. Thank you again."
