We all know Leeds are a big, established club, but with all these things happening now, they’re set to go for the future. You start to think, if it happened to Leeds, is it going to take that long for Spurs should they go down?
That’s the sort of comparisons you’ve got to think about.“We’ve all seen Leeds take a long time, but now I think they’re poised to really kick on, and I hope they do. A strong Leeds is good for football.”Leeds to have active summer transfer windowWyness also told Football Insider that Farke will be backed by Leeds’ ownership to strengthen his squad in the summer transfer window.Whilst there could be a battle to keep star players, like defender Pascal Struijk, Leeds are focused on adding depth to a number of positions this summer.Leeds have been indebted to the 11 league goals scored by Dominic Calvert-Lewin up-front, so a new striker to ease the workload on the 29-year-old could be on their radar.At the other end of the pitch, 35-year-old Karl Darlow has started Leeds’ last 13 Premier League fixtures in goal, meaning a younger shot stopper, like target James Trafford, could be smart business for the future. 🚨 Don’t Miss a Beat: Your Leeds United Insider Access Get the full story from Elland Road and Thorp Arch with our dedicated expert hubs: Updated 24/7 with expert analysis from the heart of West Yorkshire.
