Largie Ramazani exit development emerges amid unexpected situation at Leeds

Largie Ramazani joined Leeds United from Almeria in the summer of 2024 and has been a fringe player since then.

While the 24-year-old has made 25 league appearances this season, just seven of those have been starts.

The Belgian has also found the back of the net on four occasions for Daniel Farke’s side.

Deportivo La Coruna eye summer transfer of Largie Ramazani

Despite it not being a year since his move to Elland Road, Ramazani is already linked with an exit.

Spanish outlet ElGolDigital.com claim that the Belgian is facing an unexpected situation in West Yorkshire.

He moved to Leeds under the assumption that he would be a regular starter but that has not been the case.

The former Manchester United youngster has been a bit-part player under Farke with the German not seeing him as a key player.

Deportivo, who ply their trade in the second division in Spain, will offer him the game time he wants, making him a regular starter.

He has been earmarked as a replacement for the outgoing Yeremay Hernandez.

Premier League promotion would mean Leeds United need better attackers

Ramazani’s contract with Leeds, running until 2028, gives the club a strong negotiating position to demand a hefty transfer fee if Deportivo La Coruna pursue him this summer.

He’s clearly not a core part of Farke’s plans in the Championship or potentially, the Premier League.

The Whites should cash in, especially if they secure promotion.

In the Premier League, the step-up in quality would likely see Ramazani relegated further to the fringes, as he’s struggled to lock down a regular role even in the second tier.

To avoid relegation, Leeds will need a higher calibre of attackers – proven, consistent performers – rather than relying on a bit-part player.

Selling him in the summer maximises his value while freeing resources to bolster the squad for the top flight
