Former Leeds United defender Danny Mills emphasizes the importance of a strong start to the 2024/25 Championship season for Leeds if they aim to secure promotion to the Premier League.
Mills reflects on the team’s previous season, where a slow start hampered their automatic promotion chances despite a strong second-half performance.
Speaking to The Real EFL, Mills highlights the need for Leeds to overcome their play-off final defeat and begin the new season strongly.
He stresses the significance of pre-season preparations and the team’s ability to handle pressure, given their capable squad.
Leeds United is set to kick off their campaign against newly-promoted Portsmouth at Elland Road on August 10.
In transfer news, the club is reportedly pursuing Sheffield United right-back Jayden Bogle, with two bids already rejected.
The Blades are said to value Bogle at £7 million, with the player entering the final year of his contract.
Mills, commenting on the potential Bogle transfer to Football League World, views it as a promising move for Leeds.
He underscores the importance of quality recruitment, especially with possible player departures.
Mills suggests that the £7 million price tag could be a worthwhile investment if Bogle contributes to the team’s promotion efforts this season.
