No idea of the accuracy of this, but... "The club have been paying off contracts to eight players who signed deals when Leeds were flying high in the Premiership and most of those come to an end next month. This includes the £20,000 a week we are currently paying to Robbie Fowler, who was offloaded to Manchester City on a wage-share deal in January 2003, but that arrangement comes to an end on July 1 when his Leeds contract would have expired. Payments to Robbie Keane, Michael Duberry, Nick Barmby and Danny Mills will also finish. That leaves Gary Kelly and Eirik Bakke as the last two players on lucrative contracts from the Premiership era, and their deals both have 12 months left to run, and are worth an estimated £1.25m each."
