Leeds transfer news
The White Team continues to set the pace championship This season, he leads the standings ahead of 2025 and is arguably improving all the time. The 1-0 win away to Derby County was another big result at the weekend, and there is now a three-point gap between them. Daniel WakeThird-placed Burnley are outside the automatic promotion places.
While things are looking great for Leeds, some January signings will only increase their chances of securing a return to the Premier League, with plenty of players linked with a move to Elland Road in recent days.
Burnley forward Mike Tresor He has emerged as a rumored target for the Whites, with the 25-year-old finding himself out of favor at Turf Moor this season and likely looking to pull away from Leeds' Championship rivals. However, it remains to be seen whether the Clarets are willing to let him join a rival.
It is also believed that FARC's men are in the mix for the signing Josh BrownhillHe is wanted by a group of clubs before his contract expires at the end of the current season. 29 years old He scored nine goals In the Championship in 2024/25 so far, he arguably stands out as one of the leading players in the division. Now, a negative transfer update has dropped regarding another target.
Leeds bigwigs are concerned about the 'amazing' goal.
according to Give me a sport, Leeds bigwigs fear Nico Elvedi will not join the club in January Because he wants to wait and see if the White Team will advance to the English Premier League this season. The 28-year-old Borussia Mönchengladbach centre-back wants to be in the top flight if he moves to England, so it looks as if a mid-season move is out of the question despite being a prime target for the Whites.
This is a clear blow for Leeds, who would no doubt want to sign Elvedi in January, strengthening their backline for the second half of the season in the process. It looks as if they will have to play the waiting game, and also hope that the defender doesn't turn his head to a different club in the new year.
Elvedi could be a strong signing if Leeds can sign him in the summer, after his average performance 2.3 aerial duel wins per match and 90.5% pass completion rate In the German League this season, with Max Eberle Praising him as “incredible” in the past.
