The most recent Leeds United transfer news and rumours as the January transfer window approaches.
A number of Premier League and Serie A clubs are keeping a close eye on Leeds United wideman Wilfried Gnonto’s situation. According to Football Insider, this is the case.
Gnonto, who has 13 Italy caps, has been on the outskirts of the first team this season. In the last 11 Championship games, the 20-year-old has only started one.
Due to the impressive form of Daniel James and Crysencio Summerville on the flanks, his opportunities to impress have been limited. Summerville, James, Joel Piroe, and Georginio Rutter are among the forwards chosen by manager Daniel Farke.
Gnonto, who played a key role in the Whites’ relegation from the Premier League last season, joined Elland Road for a reported £5.3 million transfer fee from Swiss club FC Zurich last year. He was the subject of intense transfer speculation during the summer transfer window, but no deal materialised. His current United contract expires in June 2027.
Leeds are one of the Championship clubs said to be interested in Liverpool defender Conor Bradley. According to TEAMtalk, the Premier League club is ready to sanction another loan move for the Northern Ireland international.
Bradley, who spent last season on loan at Bolton Wanderers, has only appeared in two UEFA Europa League games this season. The 20-year-old is said to be attracting interest from the Whites, Middlesbrough, West Bromwich Albion, and Burnley as the January transfer window approaches.
In the aftermath of Sam Byram and Junior Firpo‘s injuries, Whites manager Daniel Farke has expressed a desire to strengthen his defensive options. However, United are well-stocked at right-back, with Djed Spence, Luke Ayling, and Archie Gray. Gray, a gifted youngster, has recently emerged as Farke‘s preferred option.
