Leeds United target Mohamed Camara wants out as he dreams of Premier League move
Leeds United target Mohamed Camara is reportedly dreaming of a move to the Premier League with Everton also now entering the race.
According to Austrian media outlet Salzburg 24, the 22-year-old is desperate to leave RB Salzburg this summer and hopes for a move to England.
Leeds and Jesse Marsch have “left him short of a commitment” which has made his exit slightly complicated in the coming days.
No chance
Camara may get his move to the Premier League with Everton being interested but there’s no chance of him plying his trade at Elland Road.
Leeds were in red-hot pursuit of him when the window opened but since signing Marc Roca and Tyler Adams, they’re not looking at any more midfielders.
Even young Darko Gyabi who signed from Manchester City will be expected to get some first-team minutes this season – giving them an additional midfield option.
According to Krone, Camara is valued at over £30million which makes him an expensive acquisition and would shatter the club’s transfer record.
Even if Leeds wanted another midfielder, they would not be able to afford the Mali international and it’s best that they end the pursuit right away.
They can shell out that money on a new striker instead as that’s a position that desperately needs strengthening with Patrick Bamford’s injury record being woeful and no quality replacement waiting in reserve.
