Leeds United would think about getting rid of Joel Piroe for good if they can get this signing over the line.
With their added Red Bull millions no doubt helping when it comes to the upcoming summer transfer window, Leeds United fans can be equally as excited about incomings at Elland Road as they will be anxious about a number of key players uprooting.
Daniel Farke and Co won’t just allow the star-studded squad that was agonisingly close to a promotion back up to the Premier League to be gutted with no replacements drafted up, eager to go one better next season and use this heartbreak as fuel to jump back up to the top-flight at the second time of asking.
That will be easier said than done, however, as the Championship is an unpredictable league at the best of times – just ask Kieran McKenna and Ipswich Town, who achieved back-to-back promotions and denied Leeds a more leisurely way back up a division.
Still, with a number of names being circulated as potential incomings, Leeds could take the division by storm regardless of any hangover from last season lingering, with a shrewd free transfer being lined up.
Leeds’ transfer latest
A whole host of names are being linked with a switch to West Yorkshire this summer, as Farke prepares to fill the squad with some much-needed talent, ahead of a potential mass exodus still taking place.
Leeds have been linked with the likes of Stuttgart winger Silas Katompa Mvumpa, West Ham United defender Ben Johnson and Sheffield United striker Daniel Jebbison to name just a few, with a new name being tipped for a switch to Elland Road catching the eye as well.
Long-standing Fulham servant Bobby Decordova-Reid is a new rumoured face Farke wants ahead of somewhat of a rebuild, with TEAMTalk stating that the Cottagers attacking midfielder will not be putting pen to paper on a new deal to stick it out with Marco Silva’s men, after talks had collapsed.
Everton are also known to be an interested party, according to TEAMTalk, which could make Leeds’ pursuit more difficult, considering the Toffees are in the Premier League whilst the Whites languish in the division below to their continued despair.
