Cardiff City manager Omer Riza admits that Leeds United target Ollie Tanner will not be leaving in the current transfer window.
The Whites are understood to be keen on signing the 22-year-old winger, with leedsunited.news quoting Riza speaking about his future.
Thus far, Leeds are yet to make a first-team signing and Daniel Farke has not yet ruled out the possibility of a new arrival.
When asked if Tanner will be leaving, Riza said: “No. Ollie’s a young lad, he’s one of ours and he’s doing really well. We need him, like we need all the other players in our team, and he’s doing well.
“He’s focused on doing his job at Cardiff and that’s it, really.”
