David Norris has exclusively told The Transfer Tavern he thinks Leeds' chances of signing Lewis O'Brien are slim.

Marcelo Bielsa has been quiet up to now in the transfer window, making just two significant additions in Jack Harrison, following three loan spells, and left-back Junior Firpo from Barcelona.

Exciting youngster Lewis Bate also joined from Chelsea, and the Leeds boss has been trying his luck with another young player in O'Brien, who's been chased by several Premier League clubs after his impressive form for Huddersfield in the Championship.

Despite the speculation surrounding his future, O'Brien started Huddersfield's win over Sheffield United on Saturday, and scored three times and assisted as many more in 42 Championship appearances last season.

But whilst the Telegraph believe that Leeds are closing in on a £7m deal for the 22-year-old, Norris believes that the deal has gone on too long for the two Yorkshire rivals to reach an agreement.

He told The Transfer Tavern:

"I think once it goes too far, there's obviously an issue, so I can't see that one happening now. I can't see them paying £8m-£10m.

"Some teams attract players for a long period of time and eventually get a deal done, but this one seems like it's not going to happen, it's gone on too long."
