Leeds United news round-up: Fowler sends warning as Elland Road exit set

Leeds United are going to have to upset the odds if they want to stay in the Premier League next season.

Leeds have had a busy summer transfer window so far, signing three players, with the latest being Belgian centre back Sebastiaan Bornauw.

The Whites cannot afford to slow down and must continue to address the other holes in their squad, notably the striker and goalkeeper positions.

Here, MOT Leeds News rounds up all the latest Leeds news from Thursday (3 July).

Leeds to make a move for Callum Wilson

Wilson could be an option that Farke deems to be suitable to lead the line for Leeds in the Premier League.

Wilson, 33, is now a free agent after his contract at Newcastle United recently expired.

The England international has a wealth of top-flight experience and has proved to be a quality player when avoiding his many injury issues.

This has led to speculation from Gabby Agbonlahor that Wilson could be offered small wages but a large appearance fee if he were to make the move to Elland Road.

Farke has already signed a striker this window in Lukas Nmecha, but United will need more than just him for the Premier League.

Noah Sadiki confirms Union St.Gilloise exit amid Leeds United links

Midfield is also an area United are looking to bolster in the summer.

The Whites have already lost out on one midfield transfer target so far, with Habib Diarra opting to join Sunderland despite advances from the West Yorkshire club.

Sadiki is another midfielder the 49ers want to bring to Elland Road, and now a move for the 20-year-old also seems to be collapsing.

Sunderland again are in pole position to land Sadiki after the midfielder confirmed his exit from Union Saint-Gilloise.

To lose out on two players to a relegation rival is not a good look for the 49ers, and it will be interesting to see where they go from here.

Max Wober set to leave West Yorkshire

Since returning to Elland Road from his loan spell last summer, Wober has rarely featured under Farke after struggling with various injuries and being unable to dislodge Pascal Struijk or Joe Rodon from the starting XI when he has been fit.

Wober now looks set to return to Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga, as paperwork is the only thing left to be done before the defender can make the move.

Getting Wober off the books is a smart move from Leeds.

With the likes of Jaka Bijol joining the club for big money, Wober was set to slide even further down the pecking order, and Leeds can reinvest the money they get from him elsewhere.

Robbie Fowler offers Leeds United warning ahead of next season

Former Leeds striker Fowler has predicted his former club will avoid the drop next season upon their return to the Premier League, but only if they further strengthen.

Fowler went on to say how he believes Leeds United are a Premier League club and that he'd love to see them stay in the top flight.

However, to do this, he said the Whites must spend and strengthen their squad.

Lucas Perri could be a good signing for Leeds as their search for a goalkeeper to replace Illan Meslier continues.
