This is part of a regular series from our panel of Leeds United Super Fans. Each week, Super Fans from our Leeds Insider Facebook page will deliver their verdicts on the biggest talking points and news stories around Elland Road.

Leeds United have once again been linked with an Argentinian player, this time CSKA Moscow forward Adolfo Gaich.

Tuttomercatoweb took it one step further and reported that the Whites have made an offer for the towering talisman.

It is suggested that the 22-year-old is destined to leave Russia this summer, and Elland Road could be his destination.

Things went up another level over the weekend.

Gaich was a notable absence in the Moscow derby as CSKA took on Dinamo in the huge Russian clash.

With an offer reportedly tabled, if accepted, that move should surely gather some pace sooner rather than later.

Bielsa has made a midfielder his priority this summer, and then after that, it would be a winger - with no "panic" behind the scenes.

We asked our esteemed panel of Leeds Super Fans over on Facebook if Gaich missing the squad was a hint he was set to leave.

The response was overwhelming, with the majority warning the Whites to stay away from the un-prolific forward.

Here's what they said...

Usually, Argentinian's linked with Elland Road is solely due to Marcelo Bielsa and not genuine targets - these fans will be hoping that is true.

Patrick Bamford has been firing on all cylinders again through pre-season, and Rodrigo is ready for a campaign with no setbacks - bring it on.
