Leeds Transfer Rumours

30 Oct 2026 09:47:22
I'm finding the reports this morning that Man United are poised to snap up Calvert Lewin in January completely ridiculous.
Yeah we'll sell him to them and make a nice profit and have no adapted striker to slot into his place.


Meanwhile we are struggling in the relegation zone.
I'm not saying that the club "might" cash in on him in the summer, but in January is just laughable.

30 Oct 2026 10:07:35
I actually don't think it's laughable. I think every player has a price. Ofc for him to go there it would be astronomical for:

DcL recent form and durability improvement.
It being January
It being Manchester united as a rival
It being Manchester united in desperate need

If I were our recruitment team (they'll have been doing this anyway) I'd be lining up contingencies to replace DCL. He has 18 months left on his deal. We've had his fittest season and a half in nearly a decade it feels like. It still feels like we hit a jackpot on that and it won't last.

Now I'm not about to say take a cut price £40m for him no. They'll moan and complain about £90m but that is what id start at with all the circumstances. And if we're not with a good points total by then, it won't matter we won't sell. They should baulk at £90m and move on. If we're in a good place £90m rebuilds the forward line.

30 Oct 2026 13:08:52
I think it's absolutely wrong to even think of quoting a price, even one as high as £90M. We all know that MU could easily afford that much and would quite likely agree to pay even that high a price to solve their temporary problem. Our response should be that he's not for sale, so talking values is pointless, and please just b####r off.


In any case DCL himself would most probably reject the idea of moving from a happy squad to a rabble where he knows he'd only be seen as a stopgap until Sesko is fit again or another high price star could be found.

7th and "Struggling in the relegation zone" OP, really!

30 Oct 2026 14:09:53
#clickbait.

30 Oct 2026 16:55:59
Mebbe a bit more than clickbait Baz, seems to me like someone over there starting a rumour to guage the reaction, best to ignore it.

31 Oct 2026 08:51:18
I’d sell him for 45 We gonna spend about 30-50 on striker and am in Jan anyway. That 35 would give us more dosh to offer. That’s 45 clear profit. It’s not personal. Just business. Logic.

26 Oct 2026 16:15:41
I remember when George Graham took the managers role and stating you should build from the back and I hope that's what we're doing. We obviously concentrated on goalie and centre backs, and I don't think we have any complaints about what we have. The proof of the pudding is if we then recruit playmaking midfielders and goal scorers. We shall see 🤔.

26 Oct 2026 17:50:10
Yep that 96/97 first seez of Georgie playing uber defensive included a mid seez run of an AMAZING 13 clean sheets in 16 matches

The next seez the Leeds United recruitment did very well to scout a young very talented Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink for a mere £2 million and playmaker Bruno Ribeiro for far less and scored loads of goals with a very young Harry Kewell and Rod Wallace too.

I was hoping the Leeds recruitment could have scouted a young promising striker at a reasonable price last summer.

27 Oct 2026 09:17:54
I think most fans can see that this is exactly what we are doing, and have the patience and foresight to wait and see what the next couple of seasons bring, within tight financial constraints. I'm pretty confident that this plan will see us retain our PL status, and see those investments in attacking, forward thinking players come to fruition.

27 Oct 2026 23:22:49
At least we 'concentrated' on goalkeeper AND defence. And not even to the detriment of wing positions, even if Wilson and Bahoya have not come good (yet) . Unlike another club who focuses on certain positions practically to the exclusion of almost every other position.

25 Oct 2026 17:23:35
Didn't we sign a highly rated player called Wilson? Are we ever going to see him?

26 Oct 2026 05:29:19
Not if that performance is anything to go by. Shift him out asap. Save his wages.

19 Oct 2026 07:01:18
Still being linked with oxo cube. Move on I say.

20 Oct 2026 19:38:13
Ryan Kent is currently a free agent, he might be an alternative.

21 Oct 2026 10:05:26
I'd prefer that old geezer that used to play for us. Raph somebody or other.

21 Oct 2026 10:49:28
Transfermarkt currently value him at €70M, so we may have to wait a while.

24 Oct 2026 01:53:19
Good.

17 Oct 2026 07:34:29
Reports from Fabrizio that Farke has been given a new contract until 2029. He has also left his agent.

16 Oct 2026 20:57:15
Having a chat about transfers between Leeds n Man U and there's been some major ones.
Man U to Liverpool n visa versa not so.
Looks like the last one was in 64!
Jaysus I thought we hated them.

17 Oct 2026 00:45:00
No direct transfer between clubs for indeed a humungous 61 years Corkey.

And only a few high profile players have even played for both clubs throughout their careers such as Paul Ince and Michael Owen.

{Ed001's Note - and Owen will never be forgiven.}

17 Oct 2026 05:20:54
Indeed Ed001.

16 Oct 2026 19:22:33
Looks like Farke is getting a 3 year deal!
Imo deserves that.Up The Whites Down The Pints 💙💛🤍.

17 Oct 2026 03:58:27
Report suggests it's a 2 year extension to 2029

Farkey already contracted to summer 2027.

16 Oct 2026 18:30:49
Looks like DF has accepted contract to 29 now that's done let's move on.

17 Oct 2026 04:01:04
Not yet done Whitey pal

But a report suggests a 2 year entension agreement in principal.

15 Oct 2026 12:50:03
Apparently Perri has had a not so good start in Italy, already making three bad errors. Early days but I have a feeling he'll be back at ER next pre season with Torino not taking up the option to buy.

15 Oct 2026 13:13:14
Corkey pretty sure Torino's highest incoming transfer fee in 2026 summer window was a mere 5 million Euros

so yep extremely unlikely indeed Torino exercise a buy option of 14 million Euros for Perri,even if he was good, ( which he evidently isnt)

So Torino got a not good keeper for one million ( loan fee) for the seez.thats all this deal is. nowt more.

15 Oct 2026 17:08:20
Thing is Baz if he plays well there's a very good chance another club would buy him if Torino are skint. It's not looking that way at the moment unfortunately.

15 Oct 2026 17:33:22
Yep good point Corkey.

16 Oct 2026 00:33:01
We clearly did not do our homework on Perri. Paying that much for a keeper who is proving consistently bad is confusing. Another transfer loss.

16 Oct 2026 01:31:25
Aus the Leeds recruitment seemingly bought Perri on the back of his one full seez at Lyon where he ( somehow ) produced good shot saving stats.

17 Oct 2026 15:59:25
I remember reading or listening to some podcast, possibly the square ball, where they said agreeing on Perri was a middle ground. Recruitment had a preferred target. Farke had a different preferred target.

No one could totally agree. They agreed to compromise both principles with Perri. Imagine coming in where neither side was truly backing you, not a nice environment. And neither championed you for good reason it seems.
