Leeds transfer round-up: Man City ace set to join as player pens Elland Road deal
Leeds United are planning on making multiple signings this summer ahead of their return to the Premier League.
Daniel Farke has already brought in three players at Elland Road as he seeks to upgrade his squad.
However, many stars are still being linked to the Yorkshire club ahead of the upcoming 2025/26 season.
Here, MOT Leeds News provides a round-up of all the latest news coming out of Elland Road over the past 24 hours.

Leeds-linked Lucas Perri could be sold in the coming days
A new goalkeeper is needed at Leeds this summer if they are to survive the drop.
Therefore, Farke has looked at multiple players in this position to help strengthen his backline.
Lucas Perri has been heavily linked to Leeds in recent weeks, with the 27-year-old impressing in France.
However, Lyon’s awful financial position could allow Perri to leave within days for around £19.8 million.
Monaco are also tracking the Brazilian, as the race to win his signature heats up.

Neil El Aynaoui wanted by Daniel Farke
A new goalkeeper isn’t the only position Farke is looking to strengthen this summer.
Midfielders have been linked to Elland Road throughout the transfer window, with Lens’ Neil El Aynaoui the latest.
The 24-year-old had an impressive season in Ligue 1, where he netted eight goals in 24 matches.
Lens | Games | Goals | Assists |
El Aynaoui | 24 | 8 | 1 |
Now, Farke could go all out to secure the signing in the next few days.

Leeds close in on Jayden Lienou
After the departure of Junior Firpo, securing a new left-back has been a top priority for Leeds.
The Spaniard was one of the best players at the Peacocks last season as they won the Championship title.
Now, Farke is set to bring in reinforcements for this position as Leeds close in on Jayden Lienou.
The 17-year-old has been part of Manchester City’s youth side and has represented Wales at Under 18s level.
If the signing is confirmed, he is expected to be part of the Leeds Under-21 squad.

Coban Bird signs professional contract at Elland Road
As well as securing new signings, Leeds are keen to tie down many of their upcoming players.
Coban Bird is seen as a bright, upcoming talent in Leeds’ academy. The left-back was a regular with the Under-18s last term, also featuring for Scott Gardner’s Under-21s side in the Premier League 2 and National League Cup.
Now, Bird has signed a professional contract at Leeds, penning a new two-year deal at the Yorkshire club.
From here, the 18-year-old will be hoping to eventually break into the first team over the coming seasons.
