Leeds United could announce double new transfer today as news drops
Leeds United are yet to confirm any new signings at Elland Road, but that could all be about to change as soon as today (Wednesday 12 July).
Exits are now starting to come thick and fast with Rasmus Kristensen and Rodrigo set to follow Brenden Aaronson, Robin Koch and Diego Llorente out of the club.
The 49ers Enterprises are still waiting for EFL confirmation of their takeover, but it looks as though they are ready to press the button on transfers of their own.
Leeds could now be in a position to announce two new arrivals today.

The same report shared that Hamilton gem Joshua McDonald is on the cusp of a move to Elland Road too, in what could be a cracking double signing for the future.
English clubs continue to raid Scottish sides for their best talent, and Leeds could certainly announce both new players at the same time, and it could be today.
Daniel Farke is known for bringing young players through the ranks, and although that won’t happen immediately with Pirie and McDonald, the German does have a four-year contract.
If those years are fulfilled, these two names could certainly be utilised by him as he looks to guide Leeds back to the Premier League straight away.
Pirie smashed home over 50 goals for club and country last season, so he is certainly one to watch moving forward with McDonald also another promising talent.
These may not be the big names everyone wanted, but a double transfer announcement could certainly kickstart a busy month before the season begins.
