Leeds United have reportedly reached out to sign a striker for just £4 million in January transfer window. After facing a setback in their promotion bid over the weekend, the focus for the Whites will now be on bouncing back to winning ways against Derby County on Saturday.
The upcoming January transfer window holds significance for Leeds, providing an opportunity for manager Daniel Farke to make necessary squad changes to enhance their promotion hopes. The club is said to be preparing to allocate more funds for potential transfers in January, with plans to lay the groundwork for a winter transfer spree.
While the focus is on potential new signings, Leeds may also have to navigate a possible departure, as defender Max Wober is attracting interest from former club Red Bull Salzburg. Despite joining the club in early 2023, Wober has struggled for consistent playing time under Farke, sparking rumors of a potential exit.
In line with their transfer plans, Leeds have reportedly made an approach to sign striker Dor Turgeman from Maccabi Tel Aviv in January. The 21-year-old has been in fine form this season, scoring goals both in the league and the Europa League. The Whites view him as an upgrade to their current forward options and have already contacted Maccabi Tel Aviv regarding a potential deal.
However, negotiations may prove challenging as Maccabi Tel Aviv is reluctant to sell Turgeman before the end of the season. Despite this, Leeds remain keen on securing the promising striker’s services in the upcoming transfer window.
