With Leeds United finally lifting their transfer ban, this summer should be interesting as the side looks to improve.
After finally complying with FFP, Leeds United should look to be cost effective in the transfer market and snap up free agents that could add some talent to a side that lacks flair and width.
It has been a crazy year both on and off the pitch for the Elland Road outfit, but Cellino has already mae an impact since his return to the club.
Cellino tied down a deal for Leeds United prodigy Lewis Cook this week until the summer of 2017, subsequently meaning Manchester United and co will be put off making a move for the starlet.
Here are THREE bargain players that Leeds United should look to snap up this summer!

1. Jay Emmanuel-Thomas
It came as a surprise to most Bristol City fans when JET was allowed to leave on a free transfer this summer.
Some would say the fast forward/winger has been a main part of their promotion to the Championship this season. With 9 goals out of 12 this season coming in League One, you can see the benefit of having a player like JET in your side.
The 24-year-old can deployed as a winger and has performed well there for a good portion of the season and with Leeds United extremely short of wingers, this lad could be a diamond in the rough.
Bags of pace, great control and the confidence to take on defenders, Jay has all the potential to take the Championship by storm. His ability to snatch a goal or ten a season could be a major benefit to a side that struggles to find the ability to create and score opportunities.
2. Jamie Ward
His release from Derby County came as quite a shock last week, with the player only signing a new 2 year deal last November.
Predominantly a winger or a second striker, Ward has all the capabilities to be an instant star for Leeds United if someone can give him the confidence he needs for a strong season.
Ward is only 28 years old and still has some of the best years in his career left. He scored 5 goals within the first 6 weeks of the season and finished the season on 6 goals and 2 assists, he also made 21 key passes in only 25 appearances.
With 150 appearances at the iPro stadium, Ward has bundles of Championship experience that the current Leeds side is lacking in a great deal. With Ward you're getting a talented, passionate and able midfielder who can both score and create goals.
3. Chris Eagles
Only just released from a rough spell at Charlton Athletic, Eagles has seen his injuries cause his career to faultier.
The adaptable winger or attacking midfielder could be a fantastic asset for any Championship if kept fit and confident. Although spending time at dwindling sides like Blackpool and Charlton, if Eagles could be a great addition to a Leeds side that lacks width and attacking flair.
Now at 29 years old, Eagles has the opportunity to settle down at a club and get his career back on track and there's no better club than Leeds to gain a player who has been a star for clubs like Burnley and Bolton.
