What Leeds' new squad numbers tell us as Lucas Perri situation clearer and another exit locked in

Leeds United have announced their squad numbers for the 2026-27 season, with Lucas Perri among those included on the list.

Many expected Perri to be gone from Leeds by now, having been linked with an exit right from the start of the summer transfer window.

However, a move has yet to materialise despite strong links with Torino and Lyon.

Perri has been spotted in Turin as talks with Torino continue, but a spanner has been thrown in the works.

That is due to a move for Michael Zetterer no longer being on the cards for Leeds - or at least not if his agent is to be believed.

Perri has been given a squad number by Leeds, but there is another notable absentee.

Which Leeds player is missing from updated squad list?

Perri has been given the number 23 number, which suggests an exit is not as close as previously expected.

In terms of what else we can read from the list, Harry Wilson has been given the number 10 shirt.

Largie Ramazani does not make the list at all, though, which all but confirms he is off before the window closes.

Valencia hope to land Ramazani from Leeds on the cheap, with the winger accepting he has zero future in West Yorkshire.

Of the other new signings, Nico Elvedi is number 30, Tarik Muharemovic number five and James Trafford is, as expected, number one.

Will any new names be added to Leeds' squad list?

Supporters will certainly hope so, and there is every reason to be positive at least one new signing will be made.

Daniel Farke would like to see Leeds do more business, even if the German is more than happy with what has been done up to this point.

It looked as though a new goalkeeper would be recruited, but exactly where Leeds now stand on that front is a mystery.

A new centre-forward would also be welcome, with Liam Delap a name that continues to be mentioned.

A deal for North Macedonian talent Ditmir Hodja is also looking close, but he is more of one for the future at this point.
