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.

37. Noah Okafor
Leeds announced the £18m signing of Okafor from AC Milan earlier this month, with the hope he will add a direct goal threat to Farke's attacking options. Signed a four-year contract. | Getty Images
38. Beto
Sky Sports first named Beto as a possible target for Leeds, although the YEP understands a deal would be difficult given the Toffees lost Dominic Calvert-Lewin upon the expiration of his contract last month. The likelihood Leeds and Everton will be fighting for similar positions next season might also effect their stance. | Getty Images
39. Callum Wilson
TalkSPORT labelled Leeds 'front-runners' to sign Wilson earlier this summer but Nmecha's arrival virtually ruled it out. Has since joined West Ham. | Getty Images
40. Rodrigo Muniz
The Athletic reported a bid worth £32m in total had been rejected by Fulham earlier this summer, with no intention of selling the Brazilian as things stand. Atalanta looked close to completing a move but reports suggested they would have had to pay £50m. Now looks set to remain at Craven Cottage. | Getty Images
41. Lukas Nmecha
The YEP reported in June a deal was close and Leeds confirmed it not long after. The 26-year-old striker signed a two-year deal as a free agent, with his Wolfsburg contract expiring, and got his debut against Manchester United. | Getty Images
42. Dominic Calvert-Lewin
The 28-year-old signed a three-year contract after joining Leeds as a free agent earlier this month. Got his first minutes against Sheffield Wednesday and is still building match sharpness, having missed out on full pre-season after leaving Everton in June. | Getty Images
