    Any chance???

    Leeds have released Seth Johnson after reaching an agreement with the midfielder to sever his contract.

    The 26-year-old’s deal still had nearly a year to run, but after an amicable agreement Johnson is now free to move on.

    “Seth Johnson has reached agreement with Leeds United Football Club to cancel his contract by mutual consent,” read a club statement.

    “The player had 11 months to run on his existing contract which was signed in October 2001 when he joined the club from Derby County in a deal which cost the club £7.75million. The player made 59 appearances.

    “The player is now free to join any club of his choice and leaves with our best wishes for the future.”

    Johnson, handed a generous contract by former Leeds chairman Peter Ridsdale when he arrived under a fanfare from Derby, made just six appearances for the Whites last season due to a serious cruciate ligament injury sustained at Blackburn in April 2004.
    There was a rumour of him going to Pats on loan. I'd love to get him to City. He was out injured for ages. Part of his transfer from Derby was something like an extra 3 million after 20 league appearances. He made 19 and Leeds couldn't afford to pay the extra 3 million so never bothered to play him again. If nobody signs him up in England he could be worth looking into for the champions leage next year

    If he has returned to fitness, which I assume he has or you wouldn't be advocating his name as a possible player with City, why would he consider a move from 1 Div in England to EL?

    It was 60 games needing the extra payment, he played 59. It was also £250,000 owed when he played the 60th game. He was also on £37,500 a week. But if you think he'd like to go to Cork of all places for about £1,500 a week, dream on!

    [SIZE=1]Would be a fantastic signing for any club over here! Can't see it happening though! Pats on loan was to aid in his preseason fitness and match sharpness, not his love for the national league![/SIZE]
