It’s been a relatively quiet week inside Elland Road with little palpable transfer progress since Jaka Bijol’s Monday arrival. Leeds United paid £15million to land their top defensive target nice and early but things aren’t expected to fully kick into gear until July - which has come around quickly.
Leeds’ transfer activity is expected to kick into gear from next week onwards with known interest in the likes of Lille left-back Gabriel Gudmundsson, Royale Union Saint-Gilloise midfielder Noah Sadiki and Fulham striker Rodrigo Muniz. There have also been reports surrounding a huge number of other players, albeit some have proven to be wide of the mark.
It’s already been a busy summer of transfer links and things are only expected to get busier. And so to keep you in the loop going into July, the YEP has the latest on every transfer story below.
43. Fotis Ioannidis
Alongside Calvert-Lewin and Nmecha, recent reports named Ioannidis as a potential target. Panathinaikos have already rejected a £17m bid from Fiorentina for the Greek international striker, with Sporting CP also heavily linked. | Getty Images
44. Ermedin Demirovic
Sky Germany's Florian Plettenberg named Leeds as one of many Premier League teams to enquire about Demirovic, who scored 15 Bundesliga goals last season. Stuttgart want to keep the 27-year-old who has been labelled 'a player to watch' in the window's final days. Focus in West Yorkshire is thought to be more on a winger/No.10 rather than a striker, however. | Selim Sudheimer/Getty Images Photo: Selim Sudheimer/Getty Images
