Grady Diangana transfer talks held as Leeds United start preparations
Leeds United eye West Brom forward Grady Diangana ahead of the upcoming transfer window after winning Premier League promotion.
The Whites thrashed Stoke City 6-0 at Elland Road on 21 April, and their return to the English top flight was confirmed a few hours later after Sheffield United lost to Burnley.
Supporters will now want to see 49ers Enterprises back Daniel Farke next summer by reinforcing his squad to have the best chance of avoiding immediate relegation.
The West Yorkshire outfit’s hierarchy have already started preparations for what’s to come in the coming months, with an attacking target on their radar.
Leeds United have Diangana on transfer list as Wolves hold internal talks
Wolves have held internal talks for Diangana amid interest from the Whites, according to Birmingham World.
The new outlet reports (27 April) that the 27-year-old is a target for the Premier League outfit, with his current contract at West Brom set to expire at the end of the season.

Leeds Live claim the DR Congo international is likely on the list at Elland Road as the West Yorkshire outfit look to bolster their squad.
The right winger is probably one of the many options being explored at the Peacocks, but it remains to be seen whether they make an approach for him.
49ers need quality transfer to give Farke a chance
Farke’s future at Elland Road is uncertain as the 49ers evaluate whether he’s the right man to lead the Whites in the English top flight.
The West Yorkshire outfit’s hierarchy aren’t sure about the 48-year-old head coach due to his past experience in the Premier League.
Norwich City won promotion twice under Farke previously, but the German boss’ record was underwhelming as they suffered immediate relegation.
Leeds now have some significant decisions to make ahead of next season, and the speculation surrounding the manager’s future will not help.
The focus now will be on the 48-year-old head coach, and if the Whites stick by him, every loss in the top flight will be scrutinised immensely.
With the talk around Farke’s future intensifying, it feels inevitable that the German manager will leave the West Yorkshire outfit in the coming months.
Instead of building a strong squad, the hierarchy seems to have gone down the route of questioning the head coach’s credibility, which could potentially backfire next season.
