Leeds Rumours 2

02 Feb 2026 13:19:56
Daily Mail reporting an interesting development for Leeds United… they are exploring a deal for FC Krasnodar’s Eduard Spertsyan, captain of Armenia and current Russian Player of the Year. A midfielder with plenty of goals and assists.

02 Feb 2026 16:11:43
Didn't we look at him last June? I seem to remember the name?

02 Feb 2026 17:32:02
yes he has been linked before. He's the new Kent.

02 Feb 2026 13:18:35
Wilson looking unlikely as Fulham missed out on their replacement and have apparently turned down an offer from Everton also.

02 Feb 2026 12:07:29
Spertsyen linked from Krasnodor (Daily Mail)

Vargas linked (Teamtalk)

Looks like if we do make a signing it will be more of a support striker/ attacking midfielder. Wonder if Farke is wanting to play more a 3421 formation with just the one up top getting Calvert Lewin more support from behind.

02 Feb 2026 12:41:10
You mean Farke understands tactics and change in formation lol.
No saley. He Dosent. No need to wonder mate.

02 Feb 2026 13:06:28
He's been let down by ownership again.

02 Feb 2026 13:36:16
One up top does not work!

02 Feb 2026 13:42:52
We ain’t signing anyone.

02 Feb 2026 14:50:28
We had a system that didn't work and then found one that did and when that was relatively successful we change it again to one up front. As Mo said, it doesn't work for us. Have a plan B but don't revert to a system that didn't work early on in the season.

02 Feb 2026 11:14:43
Kalvin Phillips pushing for a move to Sunderland after yet again been turned down by LUFC, he’s currently in Manchester training but that could change and has a medical booked in Sunderland waiting just incase.

02 Feb 2026 11:48:13
Gotta feel for the guy. Never get to play for Leeds again. Rich bastard though.

02 Feb 2026 13:33:11
Now seems to be Sheffield utd as Sunderland wouldn’t guarantee him playing time.

02 Feb 2026 14:12:53
Shame. And I mean it. Proud Leeds lad. Took the next step and didn’t work out. Freefall now. Good luck to him and hope he bounces back at some point.

02 Feb 2026 14:46:42
Yeah, I like the lad. Think the move to Man City was suicidal but like all players heads get turned.

02 Feb 2026 16:23:23
Just one of a number of players who've gone to Man City and then found they didn't fit the Pep plan.
Phillips, Grealish, Cole Palmer, Trafford - maybe others I've forgotten.

02 Feb 2026 16:39:48
Aus, if you think KP is a rich bastard, you may be interested to learn that (according to the Sunday Times) Erling Haaland pays £16.9M per year in tax, that's £325,000 per week, and that only puts him at no 72 in the top 100 taxpayers.

02 Feb 2026 17:35:08
The blunts are going to have a 50% Leeds team as the window closes! Hjelde and Rothwell also on their way there!

02 Feb 2026 09:39:35
Flight coming into LBA this morning at 11 from Seville and then another from Bern at 1.45pm. People speculating this is Vargas and his agent. Been lots of noise around this for some time, Seville need a big sale and Farke wanted him even at Gladbach.

02 Feb 2026 08:10:06
Some whispers for Wilson and Trafford as we go onto the last day in the window.

02 Feb 2026 08:19:17
Interesting Alf. Take Trafford. Not sure we need Wilson and I don’t think he’d come to us anyhow.

02 Feb 2026 08:41:14
I would definitely take both. But that would mean we have 5 GKs. Cairns will stay due to local player.

I would take any quality signing today to get us through survival and reassess for improvements to see us push for higher up the table.

02 Feb 2026 09:13:05
Trafford is Man City's only sub keeper, and we don't need a winger for what Fulham would still ask for Wilson when he's also free in five months.

02 Feb 2026 09:18:26
Wilson is interested apparently and is coming up to the last 6 months of his contract so Fulham may accept an offer now rather than lose him for nothing in summer.

02 Feb 2026 09:20:16
Please not Trafford! He's technically no better than what we have, thrived on the back of a very solid Burnley defence, and is over hyped, over valued and overpaid!

{Ed001's Note - I am so glad someone said this! Trafford is dog muck, I fully agree.}

02 Feb 2026 09:21:32
Nothing in either of those.

02 Feb 2026 10:25:09
Are these whispers in your head?

02 Feb 2026 12:01:01
Dog muck! 🤣😂🤣👍🏼.

02 Feb 2026 13:22:44
the whispers in my head are totally different (and much darker)

02 Feb 2026 13:17:32
did you ever watch Trafford at Burnley Ed? he made many outstanding saves including penalties and is a very good keeper. Definitely didn't just live off the Burnley defence.

{Ed001's Note - yes. I don't rate him at all. Panics under pressure, the worst.thing a keeper can do.}

02 Feb 2026 16:28:07
Dog muck - he could be our Turd choice keeper then. 😄.

02 Feb 2026 17:37:38
Lol JR.
Alf bud, he's a half decent shot stopper, but his weaknesses technically are the same as we already have. In my view, at least.

01 Feb 2026 19:53:35
Flight from Annecy tomorrow, likely nothing but Maitland Niles has been a rumour before that would give us a lot more options.

01 Feb 2026 20:30:11
Another one from London as well.

02 Feb 2026 02:04:22
Seville now added. Hopefully have some deals done on Deadline Day!

02 Feb 2026 05:06:03
Any medicals booked?

02 Feb 2026 07:12:09
Akor Adams Fits the profile:
Powerful, 6 foot 3 striker known for his excellent physicality, aerial ability, and clinical close-range finishing. He excels at holding up the ball, making intelligent runs, and maintaining a high work rate.

02 Feb 2026 07:21:21
We have been linked with Ruben Vargas all window, could it finally be happening?

02 Feb 2026 08:01:50
Only medicals booked are to check how healthy Paraag's bank account is.

Results are back, it is in a very healthy state as he hasn't f'kin spent anything!

02 Feb 2026 08:23:17
Which has got to be positive for the club right MG?

02 Feb 2026 08:37:27
Not if we go down Alf.

01 Feb 2026 14:36:43
Medical with Palace booked for JSL!

FINALLY WE CAN PUT THIS ONE TO BED.

Blunderwood it’s time to save our season pal.

01 Feb 2026 17:08:13
Strand Larsen 1 in 22. They are welcome to him.

01 Feb 2026 18:02:14
If the 9'ers are sticking with what we have they are pursuing a very risky strategy

Anything happen to Lewin currently we are deep in brown then with goals still being so scarce for us

So let's hope they strengthen tomorrow.

01 Feb 2026 18:15:10
Nobody wants to be deep in the brown.

01 Feb 2026 18:49:45
Mateta deal about to collapse.

01 Feb 2026 21:34:56
Tactics to shave off a few million no doubt.

01 Feb 2026 14:35:00
BBC say that Wolves have accepted a new offer from Palace for JSL of £43M plus £5M in add ons so £48M in total. So our lot can finally stop p#ssing about and go for Plan B (if they have one) !

01 Feb 2026 15:44:11
Should have given a final offer last week.
Pretty late to start negotiating so hopefully something else was already started.

01 Feb 2026 17:08:45
No more incoming now according to the ITKs.

01 Feb 2026 18:35:02
The itks are every fan who knows that Leeds united are being run by a bunch of amateur fools who have no idea what Leeds means or how to run a football club.

01 Feb 2026 18:44:54
The same ITKs that never saw Buonanotte coming, and then told us that we'd "agreed to bring in Mohamed Amoura from Wolfsburg"? You need to take a more sceptical attitude to what they say. To me they're just wannabe ITKs but actually only DKs like the rest of us.

01 Feb 2026 20:53:51
Lol! Bang on JR!

01 Feb 2026 21:36:50
Zinny Boswell at Sky Sports is saying an alternative striker is unlikely for us. I think our business is done.

01 Feb 2026 14:22:07
Leeds are back in for Zentner, German keeper, just returning back from injury, Farke wanted him in the summer. Perri could be loaned out if we get him.

01 Feb 2026 14:37:30
Can he catch punch or kick a ball?

01 Feb 2026 14:41:01
If we are looking for a keeper in this window (which I doubt) , why not go for Trafford on loan from Man City?

01 Feb 2026 15:33:44
No we're not.

01 Feb 2026 15:57:05
They won't let Trafford go as Ortega has gone to Forest on loan. Ortega might have been a good bet for us.

01 Feb 2026 16:01:24
As you seem to know everything So, what are we looking to get done this window?

01 Feb 2026 16:41:05
Ortega would have been a brilliant signing.
