Leeds United chief Victor Orta says it was a selling market this summer.
The Whites did not make as many additions to the first-team as they did last year but did make four senior signings. The last of the four, Daniel James, came in a dramatic Deadline Day swoop.
Orta reflected to the Yorkshire Post: “It was a strange summer. To be honest I feel this summer reflected more on the covid crisis than the (last) one because perhaps in the last one we still had the expectation that in a moment the fans would be back.
“Now there are still fears around the world about the negatives of that so it was a bit of a conservative summer, not only in England, in all the world. The different crises, the TV crisis in France, the situation in Spain with the salary caps, people were trying more to get players they don't need out, than players they need in."
