BREAKING NEWS:Leeds united loses a key player to the transfer window..
Leeds United are believed to be eyeing a January move for an “exceptional” young player, according to a fresh transfer rumour.
Leeds preparing for Championship return
The Whites’ season has been curtailed by another international break, stopping Daniel Farke‘s side in their tracks as they look to seal promotion from the Championship in 2024/25.
Leeds return to action with a trip to Swansea City on Sunday afternoon, knowing that victory in Wales will give the third-place outfit a chance of ending the weekend in the automatic promotion places, depending on how Sunderland and Sheffield United fare.
While the Whites look primed to be one of the favourites to reach the Premier League between now and May, new signings in January could help give Farke the extra squad depth that he craves, especially given the relentless nature of the Championship, with fixtures coming thick and fast in the coming months.
Gent defender Archie Brown is one player who has been linked with a move to Leeds in one of the upcoming windows, with Chelsea also thought to be pushing to snap up the 22-year-old.
Leeds eyeing move for “exceptional” player
According to Leeds Live, Leeds are still fond of Manchester City youngster James McAtee, potentially looking to bring him in on a loan deal during the January transfer window.
It is claimed that the reigning Premier League champions are “willing to let the player go out on loan”, given his lack of playing time under Pep Guardiola this season. It is stated that “a permanent deal could also be on the cards”, though that would actually go against Leeds’ chances as they don’t have the funds to compete with West Ham, who are eyeing a permanent deal.
