On the latest episode of BBC Radio Leeds' Don't Go To Bed Just Yet, the team debated whether Joel Piroe has got a role to play in the current Whites side. Adam Pope said the forward has "showed how valuable he can be" but believes the top six teams in the Championship will be interested in the 26-year-old. Piroe, who was the Championship's top scorer last season with 19 goals, has not scored or provided an assist in 12 competitive games this season.
On the latest episode of BBC Radio Leeds' Don't Go To Bed Just Yet, the team debated whether Joel Piroe has got a role to play in the current Whites side.
Adam Pope said the forward has "showed how valuable he can be" but believes the top six teams in the Championship will be interested in the 26-year-old.
Piroe, who was the Championship's top scorer last season with 19 goals, has not scored or provided an assist in 12 competitive games this season.
"You're only selling Joel Piroe if you're buying someone to come in, and we know there is nothing imminent, as Daniel [Farke] told us on Sunday," said Pope.
Piroe registered the most shots for Leeds in the FA Cup win over Derby, but still was unable to find his first goal of the season.
However, Pope said "Piroe has got a role" and added: "There is value there and there could easily be a scenario where he is needed by the end of the season in a more regular format."
