Leeds Transfer Rumours

16 Aug 2026 07:36:30
Timothy Weah following a fair number of our squad on Insta if that means anything.

16 Aug 2026 07:33:10
Something very big allegedly cooking for Leeds that is very hush hush. Even ITKs on WACCOE are keeping tight lipped about it.

16 Aug 2026 07:31:14
Grealish. 👀

16 Aug 2026 08:58:44
Proved last season to be great for Everton if fit. Would wages be an issue though?

15 Aug 2026 23:30:57
Piroe to Wet Sham gathering pace.

16 Aug 2026 05:24:50
I think this would be best for all parties. Sadly, can't see him getting into the match day squad once the season starts. Especially if another striker is bought.

He did us good in the Champ, but unfortunately, for Leeds to move forward, we need quality in that area. Especially if DCL does pick up an injury.

16 Aug 2026 07:27:22
Agreed he just isn't good enough for the EPL.

16 Aug 2026 07:29:16
It would be a great move for all parties, and even tho it's Spam, I hope he goes there and does well! I think he will. Get the spondooliks right, with a sell on!

16 Aug 2026 07:50:16
A few sources, including The Athletic, are suggesting we want £16m for Piroe, but would accept a loan with an obligation to buy.
If we got that, it would be a good result, but I think there might have to be a compromise with the fee.


Had hoped he'd go to Burnley in part exchange for Fleming, as we need a strong back up cf, but if other postings are right, we're spending what we have on other attacking options.

16 Aug 2026 08:20:09
Anything above 10 for Piroe or he stays and winds down contract.

16 Aug 2026 08:28:57
So, this time next year he once again becomes our problem to sort out, just like Wober, Harrison and Ramazani etc etc. Loan with obligation to buy should have been the minimum.

16 Aug 2026 08:44:59
Isn't Piroe in the last year of his contract? So, unless he signs a new extension, a loan with obligation would be a loan with an obligation for a free transfer next summer. 🤷‍♂️

16 Aug 2026 08:50:24
You get him to sign a one year extension as part of the deal.

15 Aug 2026 23:27:00
Borneuw deal done by all accounts. Loan with no option.

Gone through with Elvedi deal imminent.

16 Aug 2026 05:54:55
No option or obligation?

16 Aug 2026 07:28:19
No option or obligation, no. Not the ideal result, but no point a player being here that wants to leave.

16 Aug 2026 07:30:57
No option suggests we feel he has a future with us, should all go well? Probably why we are accommodating his own desire for regular football. Time will tell tho.

16 Aug 2026 08:02:51
Possibly bright. On recent showing, def worth consideration. Value might go up.

15 Aug 2026 23:06:35
So Farke has confirmed that Elvedi is close and Bournaw is off then. Another upgrade I think, but I still say that if we don't sign cover for Calvert-Lewin it's beenna bad window. Surely he won't play 38 games this season?

16 Aug 2026 00:45:33
Been shot down for suggesting Ueda is the missing part of the jigsaw, too old and not good enough, but saw a PJ today from Rotterdam, and he was not in the squad for PSV yesterday. Am I putting 2 nd 2 together and getting 5?

16 Aug 2026 05:27:12
I feel like someone will be brought in closer to the window closing. At the moment, we do have others that can slot into that role. It may not be the quality, but bodies are there.

We do need reinforcements in the defensive area, especially LB and 2nd GK.

I reckon another 2-3 incomings for sure.

16 Aug 2026 07:31:38
Agree, Nik!

16 Aug 2026 07:55:53
Agree with Dg that we need cover for DCL. Unless we've a loan option lined up, I'd still go for Fleming. He did well at this level last season in a poor side, and is not ridiculously expensive. Surprised he hasn't gone already.
Would have liked to ship Piroe out in part exchange, but other posters are suggesting that he's going to the Hammers.

This news from AI
A massive breakthrough has just hit the wire from Germany. Nico Elvedi has officially signed his pre-contract agreement with Leeds United, securing his personal terms through June 2029. Borussia Monchengladbach have formally accepted Leeds' €10 million (£8.5m) opening bid, prompting both clubs to greenlight the immediate exchange of legal documents. ✈️ Nico Elvedi: Medical Logistics Activated. The Signature: With the club-to-club fee structure fully approved, Elvedi signed his side of the paperwork within the last hour. Travel Schedule: The 29-year-old Swiss international defender is now scheduled to fly into England tomorrow evening. The Final Step: He will undergo his official medical at Thorp Arch on Monday morning before the club announces him as Daniel Farke's newest defensive anchor.

🇪🇸 Nelson Deossa: The Counter-Strategy Begins. Now that Elvedi's transfer is structurally finalized, the 49ers Enterprises board has immediately pivoted all focus to Seville: The Bid Launch Timeline: With Deossa fully frozen out of Real Betis's immediate squad plans to prevent injury, Leeds are currently drafting the final tweaks to their opening written proposal. Exploiting the Leverage: Armed with the knowledge that Betis desperately need to dump Deossa's wages to fund their chase for Dani Ceballos, Leeds are expected to officially dispatch a £12 million written bid before midnight tonight.

Why do we need a mf? Unless Ao Gruev is going.

15 Aug 2026 23:42:17
Upgrade.

We need more goals from midfield.

And someone has got to relegate Brendan to the bench!

14 Aug 2026 12:33:42
Anymore news on Perri to OM? If so, we working with them to get Pax?

14 Aug 2026 13:29:07
This Paxo stuff to Leeds is never happening, despite what ITKs might infer.

14 Aug 2026 13:49:43
There are reports in a few places that state this, but I'm not convinced of their reliability. Wait and see, I suppose.

14 Aug 2026 13:51:48
Agree, Baz. 0 chance.

14 Aug 2026 15:07:57
There are rumblings of a possible player (Perri) + cash £25m for Paixao. They want Perri on a permanent deal, but can't really be seen buying/spending, given their financial position. Given that, a player + cash deal makes sense all round.

14 Aug 2026 17:04:17
That would value Paixao at £35m. Perri + 17.5m.

14 Aug 2026 17:25:02
OM have sold Greenwood, and hoped to sell Hojbjerg to Newcastle, but he turned down the move. They still need cash because of previous spending and the substantial fall in French TV revenues.
Paixao's sale would help, and Feyenoord have a relatively small sell-on clause.
However, OM have a further problem. UEFA have put restrictions on who they can register for European competitions this season, and any new players can't go on the A List.

Consequently, as they sell first teamers, they have to dip into the B List of academy players to bulk out the squad. If Perri went to OM, he could play in domestic competitions, but not European ones.

14 Aug 2026 20:54:09
No, was Ealing. We are getting 17.5 for Perri.

14 Aug 2026 20:58:37
Should have read no way, Ealing!

14 Aug 2026 22:22:33
Sadly, Paixao doesn't want to leave. We will be on with other targets anyway, this is merely a fan distraction, I feel.

15 Aug 2026 04:18:25
A few here throwing their rep behind the No Way Pax deal. Wouldn't be too sure that is off the cards.

15 Aug 2026 04:47:45
He doesn't want to play for Leeds. Turned us down before. Don't even know why we are bothering chasing him. I don't want him. Pretty sure if he does end up leaving om. It will be for a team in Europe. Few on here just speculating.

14 Aug 2026 08:44:08
Apparently the Elvedi deal is done.

14 Aug 2026 11:16:26
Need to get a decent screw for Bourn now and not get spanked.

14 Aug 2026 11:50:58
For me, a decent screw for Bournow would be no less than we pay for Elvedi, preferably more, and paid 100% up front rather than any sort of loan deal. If they do agree to a loan deal (I hope not) , it needs to have the Hamburgers paying all his contracted Leeds salary, and with a binding obligation to buy at the end of the loan - 12 months max.

14 Aug 2026 12:39:28
If Bornauw wants to go, tell them £9m straight up or £2m loan fee, and £9m obligation if they avoid relegation.

I think that's fair.

14 Aug 2026 13:52:59
I'd go 12 to 15 in his form tbh. Nothing less than 12 obligation.

14 Aug 2026 14:00:02
I don't like your second option, Ealing. For me, a loan has to be the last resort, but if that's what it has to be, then the obligation to buy in 12 months time must come with no get out clauses. If they get relegated then he's their problem to sort out, not ours, and they still have to cough up the agreed fee.

15 Aug 2026 04:20:05
Nothing to suggest Elvedi is done yet other than a dodgy X post. Pretty sure it will get done though. Been hanging there for a month, tbf.

15 Aug 2026 23:30:32
I get info from more than just X posts, Frogus.
