Leeds United can officially sign new players on Sunday and while such quickfire arrivals are not expected, the opening of the transfer window will kick off a busy summer in West Yorkshire. A mini-window will open between June 1 and 10 before the main event on June 16, at which point Elland Road chiefs will have a list of targets they believe can ensure Premier League survival.
Work is already well underway at Leeds and will have been for several months, with recruitment staff now able to act on plans which relied on Elland Road hosting Premier League football next season. And as is always the case around this time of year, reports of transfer interest are really gathering pace.
Leeds have already been linked with a huge number of players across multiple positions, while there is also uncertainty surrounding some of Daniel Farke’s current crop. And to try and bring order to the madness, the YEP has rounded up the latest information on every transfer story so far 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
