Ladislav Krejci has been linked with a move to Leeds United this summer.

The Whites will be set for another big recruitment push this summer, with it looking almost nailed on that they will have at least one more campaign in the Premier League.

Leeds will look to bolster all areas of their squad, with the forward areas and a goalkeeper likely to be the two biggest priorities.

However, Daniel Farke is unlikely to turn his nose up at strengthening other areas of his squad if the opportunity arises.

And with Krejci linked with a move to Elland Road, that may be one of those scenarios.

Krejci has been the star of the season for Wolves, albeit in what has been a miserable campaign to say the least.

With that said, his performances have been impressive, and they have attracted interest from several Premier League clubs, including Leeds.

The Whites already have two solid left-footed centre-back options in Jaka Bijol and Pascal Struijk, and to add Krejci to that would certainly suggest that they will be sticking with a five-back formation.

It would give them plenty of depth in the defensive areas, and with Krejci also able to play in midfield, he may be seen as cover for Ethan Ampadu at the same time.

How much could Krejci cost Leeds?

The defender is on loan at Wolves, though it is claimed that they have the option to make the deal permanent for a fee in the region of £25million.

To activate that and sell him for less would make little sense, especially after relegation.

In all likelihood, the Whites would have to pay a fee upwards of £30m to land the Czech international, which may prove to be too steep depending on the finances available.
