# Leeds United: Whites have no plans to re-sign Aaron Lennon even if available for free

**[Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/revealed-leeds-united-stance-on-re-signing-aaron-lennon/) have reported that Leeds United will not make a move for former winger Aaron Lennon this summer, despite the Burnley man being available on a free transfer.**

With the Championship season set to return on [June 20](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11688/11998319/championship-set-to-restart-on-weekend-of-june-20), Whites boss Marcelo Bielsa can gradually begin to prepare for a tilt at clinching promotion to the Premier League, for which they are on course as [leaders of the second tier](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/championship/tabelle/wettbewerb/GB2/saison_id/2019).

With automatic promotion very much a likely outcome, Bielsa will undoubtedly be keen to strengthen his squad and add some experience to his ranks. However, [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/revealed-leeds-united-stance-on-re-signing-aaron-lennon/) have now seemingly ended potential talk of a move for former winger Lennon.

The former Tottenham Hotspur and England winger is available on a [free transfer](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/aaron-lennon/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/14221) this season after a two-year spell with Burnley at Turf Moor.

Lennon, who was born in Leeds, began his career with the Whites as a 16-year-old and would have been a good option to return to Elland Road, given his experience of [nearly 400 Premier League games](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/aaron-lennon/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/14221/wettbewerb/GB1) and [21 England caps](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/aaron-lennon/nationalmannschaft/spieler/14221/verein_id/3299), but it now remains to be seen where he will end up next season and who else Bielsa could bring in to reinforce his squad if they are a top-flight club in 2020/21.

***Are you disappointed that Leeds are likely to pass on bringing Lennon back to the club, even on a free transfer? Let us know in the comments section below…***
