Leeds United to hold major transfer meeting this week, new striker on agenda – report
Leeds United are set to hold a major transfer meeting this week, according to the Daily Mail.
The newspaper has reported on their website that the Whites will have a new striker on their agenda at Elland Road.
Jesse Marsch has shared recently that he is due to sit down with Victor Orta, and it looks as though the time is coming.
Patrick Bamford is now out until potentially the final couple of games this season in the Premier League.
On top of that, Tyler Roberts will not return until the summer after surgery on his hamstring injury picked up at Leicester.
Rodrigo has stepped up under Marsch since his arrival, and he has been joined by either Dan James or Joe Gelhardt in recent weeks.
Needed.
This is the one area of our starting XI that really needs fixing.
The return of Kalvin Phillips and the form of Adam Forshaw and Mateusz Klich have made our midfield look strong in recent weeks.
But, the final third is just a catastrophe at times with James being shoehorned in there despite his finishing being nothing short of shocking.
The pace of the Welshman certainly helps and his pressing ability makes him a nightmare to deal with, if he had that finishing touch, he would be an unbelievable forward.
Marsch and Orta will discuss forwards and it would be no surprise to see even two new faces come in this summer, alongside midfielders and a couple of defensive options.
It’s a big summer, our first without Marcelo Bielsa, and it will be interesting to see if these talks lead to a change in approach – bring it on.
