January will be a pivotal time in the careers of three Leeds United academy products, one of whom has already flown the coop.
Kalvin Phillips, Jamie Shackleton and Charlie Cresswell are all at different stages of their careers but all three have big decisions ahead of them in the new year. For Phillips the 'dream move' to Manchester City has brought him riches and medals that simply would not have been possible had he remained at Elland Road. What it has not brought is the game time he wants and needs, particularly with another major international tournament rolling round in the next 12 months.
Much will depend on the player's willingness to be a useful role filler, albeit for a club he adores and supports, versus his desire to nail down a starting position and make a name for himself as something more. On the evidence of this season so far, there is a place for Shackleton at Leeds and giving up a potential second promotion, this time with fans present, would be a hard pill to swallow.
