Doubt over Leeds starlets

Leeds starlets Simon Walton and Aaron Lennon could be heading out of the club.

Leeds United have admitted that starlets Simon Walton and Aaron Lennon could be heading out of the club this summer.

Lennon, 18, is reportedly on his way to Tottenham Hotspur, as Spurs continue to scour England for bright young talent.

17-year-old Walton (pictured) is being strongly linked with Everton and manager Kevin Blackwell admitted The Toffees have asked about him.

"Everton did enquire in January about Walton, but there was nothing concrete and I'm sure there are clubs interested in Aaron," he said.

"All I can say at this stage is that I can't rule anything in or anything out.

"I'll sit down with the chairman at the end of the season and if there have been offers for any players, we'll decide what is in the best interests of Leeds United."
