Roma are reportedly closing in on the signing of a £20m midfielder in the form of French ace Enzo Le Fee, and it could prove to be bad news for Leeds United this summer.
Leeds have been hard at work trying to offload a number of players this summer as The 49ers look to trim Daniel Farke’s squad, while also sorting out the future of Victor Orta’s loan army as soon as possible.
The Whites are close to offloading a sixth of those eight players. Robin Koch, Luis Sinisterra and Marc Roca have gone permanently, while Jack Harrison has gone on loan to Everton for a second campaign.
Brenden Aaronson is back at Leeds, returning to Elland Road. He is still on his holidays having played for the United States at Copa America, where Jesse Marsch and Marcelo Bielsa have reached the semi-finals.
Diego Llorente will become the sixth of eight to be sorted out, while Max Wober and Rasmus Kristensen remain. Elsewhere, Archie Gray, Kristoffer Klaesson, Sonny Perkins and Sam Greenwood have all left.
Glen Kamara is attracting interest from Ligue 1 side Rennes
In terms of Farke’s squad last season, Leeds will be keen to keep them. But there is plenty of interest, with Brighton said to be keen on four Leeds players including Crysencio Summerville and Georginio Rutter.
Another is Glen Kamara, who is said to have almost agreed personal terms with Ligue 1 side Rennes. The Finland ace was a regular in the Leeds midfield last term, providing both consistency and experience.
