]]> Largie Ramazani’s transfer to Leeds United is now very close to being declared as official business, the Belgian winger having been seen at the club’s training ground apparel suggesting a final announcement is imminent.

During the week, the 21-year-old, who was at Almeria last season, was pictured on one of these exercise bikes at Thorp Arch.

That news set pulses racing among fans. The news comes after Ramazani was reported to have flown into West Yorkshire on August 21 and taken a medical with Leeds to sign a £8 million plus deal with the Spanish club.

A Vital Week for Leeds United Transfers

Pictures of Ramazani in Leeds colors show just how near his signing is. Leeds sold Crysencio Summerville to West Ham and Georginio Rutter to Brighton, the club now need some cover.

Ramazani will be rather obvious once the window closes on 30 August, more talent should be playing for Leeds.

Leeds United’s Transfer Strategy

Ramazani’s potential arrival is only just the beginning and they could be making even more signings in the next few days.

The club is looking at Roland Sallai and Manuel Benson as options for its front line.

Fans are looking forward to seeing how Leeds use the money from recent departures of players, and the arrival of Ramazani signals a precedent for further signings.

Leeds United fans will be hoping that this is a successful transfer window, as the club aims to remain a strong contender for promotion this season.

Leeds’ Transfer Challenges

Daniel Farke, Leeds United’s manager, has seen several major members leave the team during this summer transfer period.

Crysencio Summerville, Archie Gray and Glen Kamara are gone and Georginio Rutter also departed, meaning there is a serious gap up front as well as at center-back now.

To remedy these gaps, Leeds has already brought Joe Rodon, Alex Cairns, Joe Rothwell, and Jayden Bogle.

Although with the transfer window set to close soon Leeds continues to look for talent especially in midfield.

Hannibal Mejbri: A Promising Target

Hannibal Mejbri, a young midfielder with Manchester United, has attracted the attention of Leeds.

According to reports, Leeds are competing with Burnley for this Tunisian international. Burnley holds the advantage at the moment, with negotiations already underway.

They want to bring Hannibal on loan with a mandatory purchase clause at the end of the season amounting to £7 million.

However, if Leeds can swoop in and secure Hannibal’s signature before the transfer window closes, It might be a game-changer for the club.

Hannibal could forge a strong partnership with Ethan Ampadu in the  heart of Leeds’ midfield, providing both insight and artistry to match Ampadu’s defensive rock.

Why Hannibal Could Be the Perfect Fit

Ethan Ampadu has quickly settled into the Leeds team. The versatile player, signed from Chelsea, has even played in defense or midfield positions as required.

His defensive statistics are good, with a high success rate in both ground and aerial duels. But Ampadu isn’t known for creativity, which is where Hannibal could make an impact.

During the 2022/23 season he spent on loan at Birmingham City, We have seen Hannibal’s occasional flashes of invention.

He played 38 times in the Championship and was singled out for his skill in creating opportunities.

His stats in assists and key passes made him one of the leading players of his position in that particular league.

With Hannibal alongside Ampadu, Leeds might have a balanced midfield. Ampadu would be responsible for holding down the fort and Hannibal would provide a touch of creative spark.

Hannibal’s thrusting and goal-making abilities could be just what Leeds need this season in order to go up.

The Clock is Ticking

The deadline for transfers is next Friday, and Leeds United only has a short time left to get it done.

For their promotion dreams, signing Hannibal Mejbri could be absolutely crucial.

Although Burnley are currently leading the race to sign him, Leeds may still be able to overtake them and bring this young talent to Elland Road.


With Leeds United’s game against Sheffield Wednesday coming up, fans will also be keeping an eagle eye on the transfer market and hoping that their club can snatch Hannibal Mejbri before the window shuts.

If they do, this long shot might turn into a successful bet that helps them gain promotion.

]]> Leeds United have less than a week to complete all their new transfers business by Wednesday’s match against Sheffield.

Despite a stronger defensive performance, Leeds struggled offensively without Georginio Rutter, managing only one shot on target.

Joel Piroe filled the hole left by Rutter in the number 10 position, but he had a bad game.

Manager Daniel Farke mentioned the need for four position improvements, with two in the attacking third.

Manuel Benson on Leeds’ Radar

Leeds United are studying various options for strengthening their attack, and Burnley’s Manuel Benson is already an important one.

Benson, who has a reputation for quickness and creativity, has been linked with Elland Road.

But as an unused substitute in Burnley’s recent 4 to 0 win over Cardiff, he is well within Leeds’ sights.

Burnley’s willingness to part with Benson means they may be tempted in the coming days.

The addition of a player like Benson would not only inject some creativity into the rightwing but also make it more dangerous.

Farke’s Transfer Strategy

Daniel Farke, manager of Leeds United, wants to add more creativity for Leeds. So Ben Jacobs, a journalist, can confirm that Benson is the player he sees as being able to provide both goals and assists.

Leeds, However, Leeds may face competition from Norwich City, who could enter the race if they lose Jonathan Rowe.

Finally, as the transfer window draws to a close and a new season begins, Leeds United is working hard on a move for Benson that will beef up their firepower and give them a better chance of doing well in these upcoming matches.

The post Player now in talks to renew contract – Leeds United have tried to sign him, chances look over first appeared on Football Transfer News, Scores & Results.

]]> Leeds United have been busy this summer,trying to strengthen their team as they aim to return to the Premier League. One target they made an offer for was Largie Ramazani, a young winger from Belgium.

Leeds are keen to sign him hoping he can be the missing piece in a puzzle that sees them aiming to get back into the top flight.

Ramazani’s Current Situation

But now, things look bleak for Leeds United. According to Belgian journalist Sacha Tavolieri, Largie Ramazani is in negotiations for a new contract with his current club UD Almeria.

This news provides a blow to Leeds, who had been fighting to bring in new blood before the transfer window closes.

Other Clubs Interested

It is not just Leeds United who have been interested in Ramazani. Turkish club Besiktas and Greek outfit AEK Athens are also looking for his signature.

Despite the other clubs having shown an interest in signing him, Ramazani seems set on staying at Almeria for now.

Almeria’s Situation

Last season it was a tough time for UD Almeria. Following a disappointing finish in Spain’s top division, they were relegated from La Liga back to La Liga 2.

Despite the drop Almeria’s management are anxious to retain their key personnel and Ramazani features largely in this thinking.

Ramazani’s Career So Far

Largie Ramazani, now 23 years old, has had a promising career to date as a winger. In 31 games for Almeria he has netted 4 goals and provided 5 assists.

Before joining Almeria, Ramazani was part of Manchester United’s youth system, having come through Charlton Athletic’s academy.

However, he didn’t make it into their first team and in 2020 joined Almeria as a free agent.

What This Means for Leeds United

If Ramazani stays at Almeria, Leeds United will have to look elsewhere for new signings. Their chances of a return to the Premier League this season all depend on whether they can make some crucial signings in the last few weeks of the transfer window.

Leeds fans ’ eyes will be on what targets the club picks out from here on in with great interest.

Looking Ahead

As the transfer window’s deadline approaches, Leeds United will be hoping they can pick up some key signings that would give them a better chance of promotion. Losing out on Ramazani is a setback but not the end of the world.

The club needs to move fast and intelligently piece together other talented players who can help to return them into the Premier League.

Largie Ramazani’s decision to renew his contract with UD Almeria is a key development in this summer’s transfer market. Leeds United made an offer for the player, revealing their ambition to get into the top flight.

They now have to look for fresher targets. With the transfer window closing soon, Leeds must make the right moves to strengthen their squad for next season.

]]> Leeds United have launched a stunning transfer bid for Chelsea’s young center-back Bashir Humphreys, according to reports.

The offer has alerted both Leeds and Burnley with the summer transfer window now closing. Following an unsteady 3-3 draw with Portsmouth, Leeds are keen to strengthen their defence.

Although it remains to be seen whether Whites are looking for a loan deal or permanent signing, Chelsea appears determined that the U21 England international will leave in an outright sale rather than on another temporary switch.

Leeds’ Defensive Concerns

Leeds’ defensive issues were highlighted in their recent match against Portsmouth, where they conceded three goals at Elland Road.

Even with the likes of Joe Rodon and Pascal Struijk in defence, they still looked pretty timid at the back.

Ethan Ampadu and Ilia Gruev were meant to offer more stability in front of the defence, but the loss of Glen Kamara to Rennes earlier in the summer may have weakened the team’s defensive solidity.

Leeds need some defensive reinforcements with the transfer window set to close soon

The Role of Bashir Humphreys

If Humphreys joins Leeds, he is likely to be a backup rather than a starter. But, his potential and versatility could be a big-time addition for the squad.

However, Chelsea may not want to loan out a player of his quality just for him to warm the bench and thus it is potentially forced into a sale.

Leeds should have the financial capability to make this deal happen, especially after the recent sales of players like Archie Gray and Crysencio Summerville.

What’s Next for Leeds?

Leeds United’s pursuit of Humphreys is just one of several moves they are expected to make before the transfer window closes on 30 August.

With the need to strengthen their defense becoming increasingly apparent, the club will need to act quickly to secure the players they need to compete effectively this season.

Whether Humphreys will join Leeds on a loan or permanent deal remains to be seen, but fans are hopeful that this incredible young talent will soon be wearing the Leeds shirt.

]]> Daniel Farke is in a much better place this summer than last for Leeds United’s head coach.

Even without Crysencio Summerville, the squad appears competent. Leeds have strengthened in most areas, however there are some big gaps that need to be filled such as a new full-back and someone to step into Glen Kamara’s boots.

Debayo’s Rise Through the Ranks

Image Credit: motleedsnews

One of the most intriguing stories from pre-season has been 19-year-old James Debayo.

Farke has put his faith in the teenage talent and given him significant minutes over pre-season, starting against Harrogate Town before featuring in all four games.

However, Debayo (who is a center-back) has turned in some excellent displays and shown versatility on the right side of defence.

But his performances have not gone unnoticed, with Leeds coach Michael Skubala calling him the “brilliant one.”

Left a little short in central defence now after Charlie Cresswell and Liam Cooper departed the club.

Instead, Farke looks set upon keeping Debayo as his fourth-choice center-back heading into the season.

The Bigger Picture for Leeds

Leeds United are unbeaten during pre-season, having won four matches including a win over Valencia.

The team looks balanced and prepared for what lies ahead. While there’s still work to be done in the transfer market, particularly in finding a winger to replace Summerville, the emergence of young talents like Debayo offers hope.

With such a fine history of talented youngsters coming through the ranks, it may be wise for giving Debayo a chance to shine in the first team could be a smart move.

As Leeds fans eagerly anticipate the new season, the story of James Debayo could be one to watch closely.

If he continues his current form, he might just become a key player in Leeds United’s defense.

Leeds United looks well-prepared for the new season, with young stars like Debayo stepping up.

While there are still some gaps to fill, the team seems ready to compete under Farke’s leadership.

]]> According to Sky Sports, Leeds United are in pole position to complete a deal for Crystal Palace winger Jesurun Rak-Sakyi this month.

Leeds have also agreed loan terms with Crystal Palace along with Hull after Sheffield United being the frontrunner.

The 21-year-old winger could be making his debut as early as this weekend, depending on which club he chooses to join.

Leeds, meanwhile, were looking for reinforcements on the wing after Crysencio Summerville left Elland Road to join West Ham United in a £25 million deal.

Why Rak-Sakyi is a Hot Property

Rak-Sakyi is yet to make his bow in the Championship, but his talent has already got Leeds, Sheffield United and Hull City attention.

Leeds, in particular, are keen to plug the Summerville gap and identify Rak-Sakyi as a player who could be key to their promotion push.

But the deal does not come without challenges. Leeds are also weighing up a £7 million deal for Norwich City’s Jonathan Rowe but Rak-Sakyi would be the cheaper option at an initial fee of just £1 m.

A Strategic Move for Leeds United

Leeds’ pursuit of Rak-Sakyi is part of a broader strategy to build a squad capable of competing at the top of the Championship.

With financial constraints in mind, the club sees Rak-Sakyi as a calculated risk worth taking. 

As the clock ticks down to the start of the Championship season, all eyes are on Rak-Sakyi’s decision.

Whether Leeds can shake off their Yorkshire rivals to secure his signature could play a crucial role in their campaign.

In other news, Leeds is confident that ongoing civil disruptions in the UK will not impact their opening-day match against Portsmouth.

The post “Told” – Journalist says Leeds now want to sign “one of the greatest bargains of all-time first appeared on Football Transfer News, Scores & Results.

]]> Leeds United is showing interest in signing Wolverhampton Wanderers’ left-back Hugo Bueno.

The 21-year-old Spaniard, currently a backup to Rayan Ait-Nouri, is also being pursued by Celtic, Feyenoord, and Norwich City.

According to TEAMtalk’s James Marshment, a loan move seems most likely, as Wolves are unwilling to include an option to buy.

Competition for Bueno

The major reason Bueno is seemingly set on Celtic lies in the appeal of Champions League football.

They registered an interest in January and are looking to get a deal done now.

Despite Celtic’s strong links, Leeds United are also still very much involved with manager Daniel Farke keen to add to his ranks.

Leeds’ Defensive Needs

Leeds has already signed Jayden Bogle and Joe Rodon, but they are going long-term in defense.

Hugo Bueno, with his experience and potential, could provide much-needed competition for Junior Firpo on the left.

Since joining the Wolves academy in 2019, Bueno has made49 appearances while expressing his talent and potential.

Bueno’s Career and Stats

Bueno has made 42 appearances, including 23 starts, in the Premier League. With one goal to his name, the teenager has been solid defensively as well as providing a good offensive option.

His stats, including progressive carries and key passes, indicate his ability to impact both ends of the pitch.

Celtic’s Strong Push

Celtic are also keen & players want to come so this looks likely to happen.

The fact that both sides are in the US on their pre-season tours means any potential deal can be negotiated more easily.

His profile is the one Celtic are looking for to provide competition for Greg Taylor.

Leeds United will be hoping the next few weeks can prove decisive in their bid to tie up a deal for Bueno.

With Celtic appearing as the frontrunners, but Leeds’ enduring pursuit keeping them in contention.

Ultimately, fans will be intrigued to see how this transfer saga eventually pans out and if Leeds are able to complete a signing for the Austrian wonderkid.

A Challenging Summer for Leeds

image Credit: footballfancast

Leeds were agonizingly close last season, being beaten in the play-off final with a solitary goal scored by Southampton at Wembley.

Now, they face the challenge of competing in the Championship once again, aiming for a return to the top-flight.

But Leeds have struggled in the summer with further star players, including Archie Gray who left for Tottenham Hotspur and Glen Kamara heading to Ligue 1 side Rennes.

Interest in Bobby Clark

The Athletic further added that Leeds were one of several clubs interested in Liverpool central midfielder Bobby Clark.

Despite the interest in Moses, Liverpool are still seeking a transfer fee of around £12 million for him and he faces stiff competition from RB Salzburg who have already had an offer turned down believed to be worth about £6m.

The 19-year-old has other potential suitors too, with the likes of Coventry City, Norwich and Sheffield United all interested in taking him on loan.

Mateo Joseph’s Potential Boost

Young Leeds striker Mateo Joseph had a frustrating last season with little game time. Despite his youth record, he only ever came off the bench during two years in the Championship.

Yet, his pre-season outings have been encouraging, he has four goals to his name against Hannover Schalke and Valencia.

The Need for Midfield Support

It was in midfield where Leeds particularly struggled last season, with no central midfielder managing to score more than one goal or contribute more than three assists.

If Bobby Clark comes in that could change it up. Clark has shown his ability to make an impact in the final third, with 18 goals and 11 assists in 64 appearances for Liverpool’s U18 and U21 teams. His performances in the 2023/24 season, including in the Europa League, further highlight his potential.

Bobby Clark could be a valuable addition to Leeds United, providing much-needed support for Mateo Joseph and boosting the team’s midfield capabilities.

With the summer transfer window still open, Leeds fans will be hoping for a successful bid to bring the talented youngster to Elland Road.

]]> Leeds United have reportedly made a £2.5 million offer for Ryan Kent from Fenerbahce as they look to replace Crysencio Summerville.

This move comes after Leeds accepted a substantial offer from West Ham for Summerville, leaving a gap in their attacking lineup.

Leeds United’s Summer Transfer Activity

Leeds United have also been busy in the transfer window, including four new additions to their team under manager Daniel Farke who prepares for the upcoming season.

Nonetheless, they have also lost many influential figures. Tottenham signed teenage star Archie Gray from Leeds via a release clause and Glen Kamara was sold to Rennes just six months after he was brought in from Rangers.

Leeds brought in Jayden Bogle and Joe Rothwell to replace Gray & Kamara. Now, as Summerville is set for a West Ham move, Leeds are looking to supplement their attack with the signing of Ryan Kent.

The Bid for Ryan Kent

Sport Witness reported that Leeds have launched a loan offer of up to £2.5 million for Ryan Kent.

The 27-year-old winger, who now plies his trades for Fenerbahce has been a long-term target at Elland Road following Marcelo Bielsa’s time.

Kent, a former Rangers player who has also had spells on loan with Barnsley and Bristol City in the Championship.

Ryan Kent’s Career and Potential Impact

Ryan Kent, praised as a “wizard” by former teammate Leon Balogun, joined Fenerbahce just over a year ago and has a contract until 2027.

The attacking midfielder then returned to Turkey for the first time in nearly three-and-a-half years and featured 19 times, netting one goal and supplying two assists.

While it has been a tough start to his time at Fenerbahce, a switch back to the UK would give him every chance of finding that form once more in Leeds.

His overall senior record stands at 64 assists and his previous managers, including Steven Gerrard, have praised Kent’s sharpness and thirst for progress.

Gerrard said “He looks so sharp and has taken his game to a new level. He is a fun player to both watch and coach.”

The Challenge of Replacing Summerville

Replacing Crysencio Summerville, who contributed 20 goals and nine assists last season, is a daunting task for Leeds.

The loss of Summerville is a blow, with the player set to sign a long-term contract at West Ham.

Summerville will potentially cost more than £25 million including add-ons, giving Leeds the riches to be able to find a good arrival.

However, some argue that Leeds need an in-form player to fill Summerville’s shoes, and Kent, who scored just once last season, may not be the immediate answer.

The success of this transfer depends on Kent’s adapting and delivering consistently in the Championship.

Leeds United’s move for Ryan Kent shows their intent in the transfer market.

With Summerville’s exit looming, the club are keen to add numbers and keep their team in contention.

The reported £2.5 million offer for Kent is a smart play that minimizes the maximum risk.

Certainly, only time will tell if Kent is up to the job of helping Leeds fulfill their objectives for next term.
