West Brom ‘open door for Leeds United transfer’ after latest exit news
West Brom’s recent announcement may have just provided Leeds with the opportunity to seal their first summer signing.
Leeds United are destined for a busy summer transfer window as they prepare for life back in the Premier League after their promotion from the Championship.
Recruitment at Elland Road is going to be crucial to their hopes of avoiding the drop, and it is imperative that Daniel Farke is provided with the necessary tools to thrive in the top flight.
With that in mind, a decision made in the Championship may have just opened the door for the Whites to start their summer transfer business.
Grady Diangana transfer could now be on the cards
Several players have already been linked with a move to Leeds, and it is imperative that the recruitment they do is right this summer.
One of those to have been linked is Grady Diangana, and now that West Brom have announced he will be leaving at the end of his contract, Leeds could swoop.
| West Brom | Starts | Goals | Assists |
| Diangana | 14 | 4 | 3 |
Diangana isn’t likely to break into the starting XI and change much at Leeds, but he would be an excellent addition to the squad, and depth is going to be crucial.
His experience of previously playing in the Premier League, matched by the fact he wouldn’t cost the Whites a penny in transfer fees, makes this deal seem like one they should be all over.
Daniel Farke must be backed this summer
Staying in the Premier League is a difficult task, but one that could be made slightly easier if you recruit well in the summer.
For Leeds, that will be crucial, and they need to ensure that Daniel Farke has a squad capable of challenging next season.
Diangana’s signing would be a smart one, but Leeds will still have a lot of work to do even if that deal gets done.
With PSR restrictions bound to be tight despite promotion, these are the sorts of deals that could be worth their weight in gold moving forward.
