49ers ready triple signing at Leeds as sources share Daniel Farke transfer plan

Daniel Farke is working closely with Paraag Marathe as Leeds United look to bolster their ranks in the January transfer according to GiveMeSport.

The outlet reported via their website on 31 December that the Whites could make three new signings when the window opens this week.

Farke is keen to sign a centre-back who can play at right-back and is also looking at bringing in a new left-back and an attacking midfielder through the doors at Elland Road.

Leeds are on course to return to the Premier League as they are currently placed atop the Championship table, sitting two points above Sheffield United.

The Elland Road outfit are keen to make sure they remain at the summit until the end of the season and earn promotion as league champions.

Farke and Marathe are, therefore, considering adding three new players to the squad in January.

The West Yorkshire-based club have notably been linked with several players, including Nico Elvedi, in recent weeks.

Elvedi is available for up to £10million, but may wait to see if the Whites clinch the promotion before making the switch.

Emiliano Buendia, meanwhile, has been linked with a move to Leeds as Farke eyes a new attacking midfielder.

However, the Aston Villa attacker is reluctant to drop down to the Championship midway through the season.

It, thus, remains to be seen what the recruitment department at Thorp Arch has in store in January.

Farke and co, meanwhile, will be focused on adding another three points on the board when they host Blackburn Rovers on Wednesday, 1 January.

In other Leeds United news, the Whites have already clinched a deal for this teenage sensation.
