According to Kicker, Leeds United have ‘entered the scene’ to sign Bayer Leverkusen midfielder Nadiem Amiri.
Marseille is also interested in him and stated their interest three weeks ago.
The Ligue 1 club had been courting the 26-year-old for some time, and a deal appeared to be in the works when Leeds entered the fray.
According to the article, Daniel Farke‘s team wants to retain Amiri’s services. The Bundesliga club has asked for roughly €6 million for the Germany international, and the Whites are’ready to pay’.
If Leeds makes a €6 million bid, the two teams are likely to reach an agreement. Kicker adds that Amiri ‘only has to say yes’ for the deal to go through.
As of Wednesday, the website stated that the player is opposed to joining Leeds because they are in the Championship. Meanwhile, Marseille is yet to complete the necessary steps to sign him.
Amiri‘s contract is set to expire in 2024. If Xabi Alonso‘s club fails to sell him this summer, he could go for free the next summer.
Last season, the German has four goals and two assists in 36 games.
