The 2017/18 Championship season is over and Leeds United fans will be looking ahead to next term already after a disappointing mid-table finish.

After just missing out on the play-offs in the 2016/17 season, many Leeds fans hoped that the club could kick on but those hopes were soon dashed and a mid-table position was underwhelming.

Now the transfer window is open, it is crucial that Leeds have a more successful summer than last year, where they brought in a number of players who have under-performed this season.

There are a lot of things to sort out this summer for the Whites, including new arrivals, player sales and some behind the scenes affairs.

Here are four issues that Leeds must address early in the summer and sort out in the next few weeks to ensure they have the best chance of success next season.

Will he go or will he stay? The season has been over for more than two weeks now and still there is little clarity on this situation.

Leeds should either sack him or back him but do so early so that they have enough time to get a new manager or they can just start preparing for life with Heckingbottom in charge.

Who will be Leeds' number one next season? They used three goalkeepers last season.

If it was up to me, I would try to flog Andy Lonergan and Felix Wiedwald and then bring someone like David Stockdale or Angus Gunn to compete with Bailey Peacock-Farrell.

With Premier League clubs circling, Leeds fans are still worried that Pearce could leave on the cheap.

The 20-year-old broke into the first-team at the back end of last season, playing five times and scoring once, and his impressive performances have Leeds fans desperate to keep the young left-back.

Last summer, Leeds sold prolific striker Wood to the Premier League and their three new signings (Pierre-Michel Lasogga, Caleb Ekuban and Jay-Roy Grot) have struggled in front of goal.

The Whites need to snap up a top striker like Abel Hernandez to solve their concerns in front of goal.
