Incoming signing's place in Leeds United new best XI and bench with attacker arrival and forgotten man return

Leeds United are closing in on the capture of Slovenian international centre-back Jaka Bijol as the club’s second signing of the summer which likely leads to a changed best XI - and bench after another arrival.

Leeds are heading back to the Premier League as Championship champions and the club have already secured their first new addition in German international striker Lukas Nmecha.

The 26-year-old - who began his career at Manchester City - will join the Whites on July 1 from VfL Wolfsburg as a free transfer upon his contract with the Bundesliga side expiring.

Leeds remain in the market for another striker but Nmecha’s arrival will give boss Daniel Farke a big decision to make - as will the incoming arrival of Slovenian centre-back Bijol from Udinese.

More arrivals are then expected in addition to departures but this is how we think the new best XI and bench will look once Bijol is in the building from the players currently available at boss Farke’s disposal.
