Transfer deadline day passed without any further Leeds United additions - so what does the club’s strongest XI and bench actually now look like?
Leeds went into the final day of the summer window having already signed ten new players this summer in Lukas Nmecha, Jaka Bijol, Sebastiaan Bornauw, Gabriel Gudmundsson, Sean Longstaff, Anton Stach, Lucas Perri, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Noah Okafor and James Justin.
Daniel Farke’s newly-promoted Whites have also made a solid start to their first season back in the Premier League, Saturday’s goalless draw at home to Newcastle United taking the team’s tally to four points from three games played.
Farke, though, had continually stated the need for more quality attacking additions and warned after Saturday’s draw against the Magpies that things would be difficult for Leeds in their bid for Premier League survival if no further attackers were signed before Monday night’s 7pm deadline.
Despite a late attempt to get winger Harry Wilson from Fulham, there were ultimately no further additions.
We do, though, still think that the club’s strongest XI and bench will look different after the international break as other summer signings find their feet. Here, we run through our idea of the new strongest starting-line up and subs.

20. Sub: Joel Piroe
Last season's top scorer and indeed Championship Golden Boot winner Piroe began the season as first choice striker but big competition has emerged in Calvert-Lewin and Nmecha who look like more natural no 9s but Pirioe's finishing will always be a big asset and the Dutchman can also play as a no 10. Not forgetting young Harry Gray knocking on the door too. | Getty Images
