Leeds transfer flop finally has impact for Daniel Farke, his value is now starting to show
Leeds United play host to Tottenham this Saturday lunchtime at Elland Road.
Leeds have enjoyed a solid start to life back in the Premier League, and will look to make it three games unbeaten against Thomas Frank’s side.
Leeds were denied a valuable three points against Bournemouth last Saturday and now face a Spurs side coming off the back of a nervy draw against Bodø/Glimt.
Daniel Farke has been backed in the transfer market this summer by the 49ers Enterprises, with the new signings looking good already.
However, it is a previous signing who had flattered to deceive who may be finally coming good.
Brenden Aaronson could finally be delivering for Leeds
Brenden Aaronson has been linked with a Leeds exit for quite a long time, with the American being a massive disappointment since his signing.
Aaronsen performed well against Bournemouth when Farke played him off the right, and he was unlucky not to get an assist.
The Americans’ value at Leeds this season is evident following the reveal of a key attacking stat.
Aaronsen leads the team in big chances created with three in the first six games, according to Sofascore.
This is quite the turnaround from his previous seasons, where Aaronsen often looked lost on the pitch, making no real impact.
Leeds fans have been waiting to see the American deliver consistently and hope this type of form can continue.
Leeds fans have waited too long to see the best of Brenden Aaronson
Aaronson undoubtedly has plenty of natural ability, but that hasn’t been seen anywhere near the right level since he joined.
This is a good start to the season, which is exactly what Leeds fans wanted when they signed him, but it may have come too late.
- Leeds signed Brenden Aaronson for £24.7 million from Red Bull Salzburg in 2022
- He spent the 2023-2024 season on loan at Union Berlin
- Aaronson has 10 goals in 87 games at Leeds
Farke now has real options in attacking areas of the pitch, and it will be difficult for Aaronsen to really break into the team.
Leeds fans should be glad with what the American has been showing so far this season, but would also not be too bothered to see him leave in January.
