WOL reporting that Leeds' interest in Bartley is cooling and that maybe Bielsa isn't that fussed. Personally I'm pleased about that. No question that Bartley is an accomplished Championship CB as he proved during his loan spell with Leeds. Tall, physical CBs are the order of the day in that league and Bartley fits the bill to a T. He has a long contract with us; I doubt he's on huge wages and we'd only have to replace him if we sell. Could we get better for the money we're likely to get for him? I doubt it.
In the same article it's said that Mesa might not complete his move to Valencia until July. It's suspected that they might be playing games trying to reduce the fee even further, 7 million euro being freely quoted. I'd rather keep him for that pittance.
