‘No brainer’, ‘Real cracker’ – Many Leeds fans blown away ‘Top quality’ ace transfer report

After a cracking win on Saturday against Blackburn, Leeds United took one step closer towards the Premier League.

With promotion, the Whites will start to be linked with bigger and better players in the summer transfer window.

The latest reported interest? The Mirror have claimed that Marcelo Bielsa is plotting an “ambitious” move for Celtic’s Odsonne Edouard.

It was suggested in a recent Sky Sports article, that the Frenchman is valued at £40million but that doesn’t seem to be putting Leeds off.

Despite that price tag, it is still reported that the 22-year-old finds himself high up on the shortlist of Bielsa should he take Leeds to the top flight next season.

Edouard has scored 27 goals this season for the Hoops, and Neil Lennon unsurprisingly doesn’t want to lose his main talisman.

Any move for another striker would depend on the future of RB Leipzig man Jean-Kevin Augustin, with the Whites still having an obligation to buy the forward.

Leeds have cancelled the loan move for the French forward, and are reportedly looking to get out of their obligation for a permanent switch.

Many Leeds fans have reacted to the recent links with Edouard on Sunday, with the majority blown away.

Whites fans are more than excited with the potential of Edouard running out at Elland Road next season, especially after watching Patrick Bamford in this campaign.
