Gossip Column (Jan 14): Blow for Leeds United in £1m midfielder chase | Sheffield Wednesday going for Max Power | Huddersfield Town striker Nahki Wells interests rivals

Celtic manager Ronny Deila insists that Tom Rogic will be staying at Parkhead, despite interest from Leeds United.

The Yorkshire Evening Post reported on Monday that Leeds were preparing a bid of around £1m for the Australian. However, Deila says the 23-year-old will be staying in Scotland in January.

He said: ”I haven’t heard so much about that.

“But what I do know is that we want to re-sign Tom and have him here for the future.

“He’s made a lot of progress and we see a lot of potential in him.

“He can do much better because he has only played for six months after being out for a year before that.

“He needs time so he’s going to stay here with Celtic.”
