Leeds Transfer Rumours

21 Aug 2026 15:14:13
Mudryk linked as being on the list of left wingers.

Maybe as a loan with Chelsea covering most of the wages!

Seems very left field, no pun intended!

21 Aug 2026 12:19:01
Leeds are working on Matteus Mane according to the "Leeds Leaks" X account. Don't know much about him other than a AM/ LW, 18yrs old.

21 Aug 2026 12:31:51
Would be a good signing - bags of potential.

21 Aug 2026 12:55:23
Is this the same Mane that's with Wolves?

21 Aug 2026 13:11:02
Huge potential, not too sure where he would play though.

21 Aug 2026 14:06:37
Leeds Leaks is a troll unfortunately, would be a good signing

21 Aug 2026 17:11:38
Play him on the left. Okafor plays what, sixty on average, so that leaves nearly 40 mins.

21 Aug 2026 11:29:06
Leeds have won the race to sign North Macedonia striker Ditmir Hodja from Rabotnicki Skopje.
The 18-year-old target man will be confirmed as a Leeds player over the weekend and will initially be for their U21s.

Widely reported and done deal.

20 Aug 2026 21:03:14
Leeds one of the clubs interested in Bohoya according to WACCOE.

21 Aug 2026 15:58:43
Is that Lee Bohoya? I'll get me coat.

20 Aug 2026 21:02:29
Leeds also interested in Balogun who would be a similar fee to Delap.

21 Aug 2026 06:47:12
This would be a great signing!

21 Aug 2026 09:38:39
Franculino Dju, for me, would be a great signing.

21 Aug 2026 11:33:27
He looks like a good prospect, in fairness. He is physical and very explosive, which could make him a vital addition.

Probably available at a lower fee than some alternatives, with him being in the Danish league!

20 Aug 2026 20:05:03
Brendan new contract signed until 2029.

21 Aug 2026 07:42:31
Delighted with this news! A lot won't be, and I honestly can understand that, to an extent. But if he's gonna be primarily deployed as an impact sub, defensively and offensively, I think he'll be extremely useful.

21 Aug 2026 07:49:23
Delap is very similar in what DCL gives us, so I can understand why we would be tracking him.

21 Aug 2026 09:22:32
According to YEP, YEP understands there is no truth
to the reports and that Delap is not a player the Whites are in for.

20 Aug 2026 19:42:47
Zetterer deal close by what's been on X.

20 Aug 2026 21:01:44
Athletic reporting the same.

20 Aug 2026 22:28:00
Sky Sports the same. Deal virtually agreed with a few small details to iron out.
Good news re BA, although some might disagree. Hopefully Gruev will be announced soon.
Just need a striker and maybe a LB, although I wonder whether we'll stick with what we've got plus Lineout. If we got a decent striker I'd think we'd had a decent window.

21 Aug 2026 07:23:07
Twist in Bild, though, who report that Zetterer's camp deny the move.

21 Aug 2026 08:26:43
He's being forced out of Frankfurt, isn't he? A bit like Perri with us.

21 Aug 2026 09:05:55
Yes. Sounds like he doesn't want to leave, but Eintracht are looking for a new No. 1. His agent has denied interest in joining Leeds.

21 Aug 2026 11:51:48
The interest isn't being denied, it's just being played down as not happening at the moment. Zetterer is still their number 2. If he became their number 3, I think things would then change.

It seems The Athletic have gone a bit early with their story, probably badly worded as indicating it's almost a done deal, which has irked Zetterer's agent. There is no deal until Frankfurt sign someone.

20 Aug 2026 17:23:05
Looks like Leeds are seriously interested in Delap. Tall striker, 23 years old, room for growth. Exactly the sort of profile we are after. Not bothered about the price so long as the club can afford it.

20 Aug 2026 19:30:35
Would fancy having him, he hadn't a hope last Seez, so a sustained run in a good spirited team could see a massive return.

Would be very happy if this works.

20 Aug 2026 20:05:19
Oh dear. 1 goal and 0 assists in last 28. Dear of dear.

20 Aug 2026 20:18:54
I quietly think what we'll do is pull out of the Delap sweepstakes. Everton will win them.

We'll then take Beto or Barry on loan. Remember that DCL will likely be our primary, and it's about raising the floor of the backup, which I think either of them would do.



That, or target a slightly deeper 10 profile to play behind DCL. Heard that Woltemade doesn't fit Jaissle's style, and that he might be available for a loan. Subject to Farke liking him, I'd take one from Barry, Beto and Woltemade. Perhaps even two if we lost Nmecha to Wrexham.

20 Aug 2026 20:31:46
There's a cracking player in Woltemade at the right club.
Would take him on loan for sure.

20 Aug 2026 20:57:42
I am confused, guys. If DCL remains fit, he is surely our main striker under Farke's current system. Are we trying to find an upgrade for Farke or someone who's happy to act as cover/substitute? At this point in our growth, I am not sure what the boss has in mind.



Don't fancy Shirtlap at all!

I really don't know what the club will do here, MOT.

20 Aug 2026 22:54:54
Please not Delap, absolute donkey, no goals, no assists, no hoper.

20 Aug 2026 23:39:44
Wind back 12 months before Chelsea.

21 Aug 2026 00:43:22
12 goals for Ipswich in 24/5.

21 Aug 2026 07:34:38
Mixed feelings on Delap. He had a good season with Ipswich, but probably signed for the wrong club - Chelsea can be a bit of a graveyard for some players. They sign in bulk on long contracts, and despite loaning out, they still end up with a bloated squad. The atmosphere within the club has not been good for a long time, so maybe Delap just needs to come to a club with a bit of team spirit and togetherness. A loan, with maybe an obligation based on performance, but at a sensible price.
Beto and Barry have not done all that much.

Both cost around £25m. Barry is younger, and more chance to develop.
I like Woltemade, and he can play a bit deeper as well. He cost £65m, so unless he's a straight loan or £40m is knocked off the price, he's not an option.
Whatever the views on these four, there is a definite need for a new striker. We were lucky, or maybe very professional, to keep DCL and, to some extent, Nmecha, fit for most of last season. However, it's a gamble to think we can repeat that, and I think we do need a new addition.

21 Aug 2026 09:24:10
According to YEP, YEP understands there is no truth
to the reports and that Delap is not a player the Whites are in for.

20 Aug 2026 10:37:22
Great stuff, new contract for Boges following Amps and Rodon. Excellent news on all fronts and great work by the 9ers.

20 Aug 2026 11:57:35
Brenda next.

20 Aug 2026 12:22:33
Agree, we need to sort new deals for Brendan and Gruev next or sell.

No real talk of either going, so Brendan probs at the same extension. Gruev might be in line for a light increase - he's on a pittance by prem standards and is a class act off the pitch and with the lads, and is honest enough about his minutes.

20 Aug 2026 14:54:44
100 Ealing.
