Leeds United’s Premier League season opener may only be days away, but this is not stopping Daniel Farke from pushing further transfers along.

The Peacocks have been highly active this summer, with seven signings coming through the door at Elland Road.

Given that Leeds are tipped to be relegated from the Premier League, strengthening the squad has been a priority.

As a result, rumours continue to circulate, with only a few weeks left of the transfer window.

Therefore, MOT Leeds News has highlighted all of the key rumours from the past 48 hours below.

Leeds set to miss out on Rodrigo Muniz

One player who has been heavily linked to Leeds is Rodrigo Muniz.

The Fulham star has been rumoured to leave the London side throughout the transfer window.

Leeds previously saw a bid rejected for Muniz, and now any hopes they had of signing the Brazilian appear to be dashed.

Reports now indicate that Muniz is set to move to Atalanta and has waved his goodbyes.

While a fee needs to be agreed upon, the move for the 24-year-old is set to be sanctioned.

Manor Solomon wants return to Leeds United

Another player who has been linked to Leeds United throughout the transfer window is Manor Solomon.

The Tottenham star had a highly successful spell at the Yorkshire side last season on loan, where he helped them reach the Premier League.

Now, reports suggest that Solomon wants to return to Leeds, with the Israeli not part of Thomas Frank’s plans.

Spurs are open to loaning out Solomon again, but they will not rule out a sale either.

Brighton set to allow Facundo Buonanotte loan

Elsewhere, Leeds are said to be looking at Facundo Buonanotte.

The Brighton star spent last season on loan to Leicester City, but was unable to prevent their relegation.

However, the 20-year-old put in some impressive performances and netted five Premier League goals during his time at the Foxes.

Buonanotte's Premier League record last season

Now, Brighton are set to sanction a loan move for Buonanotte, giving Farke the green light to complete the move.

Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund have both enquired about the Argentine, but the Seagulls would prefer to keep him in the Premier League.
