Danny Mills believes that Leeds United made the right call to sell Bailey Peacock-Farrell after the keeper completed a move to Burnley last week.

The Premier League side are said to have paid an initial £2.5m for the Northern Ireland international, whilst the fee could increase if certain clauses are met over the years.

And, Mills, who made almost 150 appearances for the Whites, told Football Insider that the Yorkshire side got a good deal for a player who still hasn't proven himself.

"It is what it is. What’s he done in a game? Zero. He’s played a handful of games in the Championship. He’s not the finished article, clearly. Do we know if he’s good enough to keep goal in the Championship week in, week out? Not yet. Do we know if he’s good enough for the Premier League? Certainly we don’t. It’s a small fee for a young player that Leeds are making a reasonable amount of money on.

"How much more could you charge for a player of that ilk? I’m sure there’ll be add-ons, sell on clauses – if he makes 50 first-team appearances it’ll be another million quid or something. There are all these sort of bits in it in the future that will help Leeds out."

The 22-year-old started in goal for Leeds last season before losing his place to Kiko Casilla when the Spaniard arrived in January.

The Verdict

I'd probably disagree that an initial fee of £2.5m is fair in today's market when you consider that Peacock-Farrell is a young keeper and already has international experience.

However, you can't argue with the fact that he is unproven and he certainly didn't convince when he was in goal at the start of last season.

The issue for Leeds was that Casilla came in and wasn't a clear upgrade, so it's still something of a problem position.

But, back to the Peacock-Farrell deal, it's a transfer that seems to suit all parties right now and we won't know for a few years whether Leeds were too quick to move him on.
