‘ Cody Drameh? ‘

Mon May 23, 2022 7:47 am

Cardiff's chances of re-signing Cody Drameh might have been boosted after a dramatic twist in Leeds United's fortunes on the final day of the season.


Heading into the final day of the Premier League season on Sunday, Leeds were favourites to drop back down into the Championship, with Burnley tipped to avoid the drop.

However, thanks to Leeds' 2-1 win over Brentford and Burnley losing 2-1 to Newcastle, it saw Jesse Marsch's side leapfrog the Clarets in dramatic fashion to secure top-flight status for another year. While there will be euphoria and elation up at Elland Road, the result will likely impact the future of former Bluebirds loanee Drameh, who won the Player of the Year award and Young Player of the Year gong at Cardiff's end-of-season ceremony.



And Leeds correspondent Beren Cross believes Leeds staying up might mean Drameh is once again moved out on loan. Regarding the defender’s future, Cross said in a Q&A on our sister title, Leeds Live, this weekend: “Drameh’s deal also expires in 2024. In the second tier, I would back him to stay and duke it out with [Luke] Ayling for starts, but in the Premier League he may not quite be ready for the quantity of minutes he is looking for.

Leeds will either want a healthy fee for Drameh or want him to go out on loan to a club challenging flair promotion, they may even give Drameh a run in the pre-season friendlies?


“His recent comments would suggest he wants another loan if he’s not getting the lion’s share of starts. Surely Leeds would only consider a sale of such an asset with a decent fee and plenty of add-ons.

Morison is a big fan of Drameh and would like him to return, the stumbling block could be the big fee and wages which would

Steve Morison:


"Cody, I love the kid," he added. "He said to me as we were walking off, 'Thanks for keeping your word'. I was like, 'I said you'd play, where you would play and how you would play'. He said ever since the presentation he knew he wanted to be a part of it.

"I said to him, 'Go on now and reach where you need to reach, because you're on the way now'. I am really, really pleased for him."

Right-back is certainly an area in which Morison will be looking to strengthen, with Perry Ng the only recognised senior option there - and he has been converted into a centre-back towards the back end of last season. Jai Semenyo will likely head out on loan.

Personally I think he'll do pre season with Leeds then they'll decide last minute

That how I see it Mike,

I don’t think he is ready yet for Premier, another season in the Championship will do him good.
