It’s been another busy week for Leeds United’s recruitment staff with one transfer confirmed and another expected to follow shortly. Anton Stach’s £17.4million move from Hoffenheim was officially announced on Tuesday and 48 hours later, goalkeeper Lucas Perri emerged as prime target number seven.
An agreement looks to have been reached with Lyon and the YEP understands Perri will undergo medical tests in Germany before meeting up with his new teammates for pre-season. After that, first-team additions in defence and midfield will be pretty much sorted, with all eyes on attack.
Leeds are known to want difference-makers at left-wing and upfront, while there is still a chance they revisit interest in a No.10 further down the line. Depth is also needed across the board and the YEP has the latest on every transfer story so far this summer below.

25. Kalvin Phillips
The 29-year-old is reportedly 'desperate' to come back home, although high wages and a lack of regular football at already-relegated Ipswich Town present issues. Remains a Manchester City player at present, with no suggestion a move anywhere is close. | Getty Images
26. Habib Diarra
The YEP reported on interest in Diarra, with Leeds believed to have lodged a £22m bid. Elland Road chiefs didn't see it as a likely move from the off, however, and he has since joined Sunderland for a club-record £30m. Leeds aren't thought to have returned with a second offer. | FREDERICK FLORIN/AFP via Getty Images Photo: FREDERICK FLORIN/AFP via Getty Images
27. Gustavo Hamer
Fresh links to Hamer were inevitable following Sheffield United's play-off defeat and recent reports suggest the Dutchman could be available on loan with a £15-20m obligation to buy. Suggestions of a move to Leeds being virtually wrapped up, however, are believed to be wide of the mark at this current moment in time. | George Wood/Getty Images Photo: George Wood/Getty Images
28. Christantus Uche
The Athletic reported that Leeds had enquired about the 22-year-old midfielder, albeit no bid has been made. Wolves were close to securing a £17m move for the Getafe star but it collapsed at the final hurdle, with a move still possible before Monday night. | Alex Caparros/Getty Images Photo: Alex Caparros/Getty Images
29. James McAtee
Leeds linked with interest earlier this summer but a move never looked likely. Has since joined Nottingham Forest. | Gareth Copley/Getty Images Photo: Gareth Copley/Getty Images
30. Dilane Bakwa
Strasbourg's Bakwa is believed to have been assessed by Leeds, as per the Athletic, but is of interest elsewhere too. Forest have reportedly seen a bid rejected and remain interested, while there will be plenty of competition elsewhere. | VALERY HACHE/AFP via Getty Images Photo: VALERY HACHE/AFP via Getty Images
