Farke is said to have blocked an exit for one of his players during the summer transfer window.
According to Voetbal Krant, the Leeds board were expecting to lose Pascal Struijk during the summer amid a number of exits, but Farke made it clear he would not lose the Dutchman, believing he would be a key part of his and his side’s promotion bid this season.

Roca opens up
On-loan Real Betis midfielder Marc Roca has spoken to the Spanish press about his time at Leeds United, with whom he was relegated from the Premier League last season. In a new interview with Spanish outlet MARCA, Roca says he does not regret his time in the Premier League, describing it as a period of ‘personal growth’, even if the team were not successful on the pitch.
“I enjoyed a lot, I had a lot of participation. I think it was a year of a lot of growth, of personal growth,” Roca said. “It was also a year of many games, of a lot of intensity in the Premiership, of playing against the best. I learned to love Leeds. I love it because in the end it gave me the opportunity to play in the Premiership and from the first moment I connected a lot with the club.”
