It's improbable that Hastings would quit Wigan for Leeds but remember we were, by far, his preferred option - but unlike Wigan we wouldn't agree to the get out clause. Absolutely rightly.

If we gazumped Wigan for him now there would be an almighty transfer fee or a Hetherington vs Lenaghan court case which would be one for the ages like the Harris one. In short, it's almost impossible to happen.

Add to that we no longer need him.

Sounds like utter nonsense. How would Hastings 'quit' Wigan to join any SL side? Would he try the Solomona route of 'retiring' from Wigan?

I hope we either get someone sorted soon if we're looking at one or more signings. Wouldn't want to go too deep into preseason without the squad settled as there have been so many changes.

No idea why Hastings seems to have cooled on Wigan but this paper report seems just fantasy 2+2=125.Why would Lui feel pressure when we haven't kicked off yet.More pressure last year so if he doesn't like pressure why leave Salford who were flying high to come to Leeds who were under pressure of relegation.

Surely the Hastings issues are more to do with not wanting to come back to England rather than a move from Salford to Wigan. Sounds like rubbish.

It's one of the worst transfer rumours I've ever seen

In other news, Leeds are rumoured to be interested in Widnes winger Martin Offiah, although Wigan is his preferred destination...

Even better, it's two bad rumours stitched together.

https://www.zerotackle.com/free-agent-t ... ine-50808/ Wonder if we'd be interested in Kyle Turner pretty sure we was trying to get him when Furner was looking to bring in some new faces, he'd be a useful pack player for us can play a variety of positions prop, second row and can even cover centre, seemed open to a move to uk for a couple of years just depends how much he'd be looking for wage wise but he's without a club so couldn't really demand a huge wage because he might not get better offers, he'd use our last quota spot i believe so not sure club would use it for a utility forward as we've been rumoured to use it for a marquee signing if they became available.
