Leeds United confirmed their status as Championship champions with a 2-1 win at Plymouth Argyle on Saturday and following Monday’s open-top bus parade, all focus will turn to the summer. 49ers Enterprises chief Paraag Marathe recently insisted every available penny within PSR limits will be put into transfers with reinforcements needed across the board.
The transfer window is still a month or so away from opening but already Leeds have been linked with interest in several players across several positions. There is also uncertainty surrounding some of Daniel Farke’s current group, while loan exits will soon return.
With all that in mind, and ahead of the transfer summer opening on June 1, the YEP has rounded up the latest information on every Leeds United transfer story so far. Take a look below for all the key information.
1. Illan Meslier
The YEP reported earlier this summer that interest in the French goalkeeper was starting to ramp up, albeit no firm offers are thought to have been received yet.

2. Junior Firpo
The defender's exit was officially confirmed in early July and he has since signed a three-year deal at Real Betis. The YEP understands an offer from Leeds is on the table which represented a pay rise on his Championship wage but a reduction on what he earned when arriving from Barcelona. | Getty Images
3. Max Wober
Told Austrian media during the June international break that Leeds want to sell him and has since joined Werder Bremen on loan. Decision came with Leeds unlikely to break even on his roughly £5m book value, which would mean a PSR loss. | Getty Images
4. Isaac Schmidt
Joined Werder Bremen on loan for the campaign having played just over an hour of Championship football last season. The Bundesliga side have an option to buy for around £3.5m. | George Wood/Getty Images Photo: George Wood/Getty Images
5. Darko Gyabi
Impressed on loan at Plymouth Argyle but is could be sold, with Leeds hoping to raise funds by trimming the fat of their squad. The YEP understands Leeds hope to get between £3-4m for the midfielder. | Getty Images
