Leeds United is considering Bournemouth striker Kieffer Moore as a potential January transfer target. Despite only playing seven games this season, Moore’s situation is being monitored by several clubs due to his lack of playing time under new manager Andoni Iraola. However, due to his high wages, a loan move is the only feasible option for Championship clubs.
Leeds’ attack has been strong this season, scoring 45 goals and ranking fourth in the Championship. The current front four of Dan James, Crysencio Summerville, Georginio Rutter, and Joel Piroe have been effective, with three of them scoring more than seven goals and providing assists. However, Piroe’s fatigue and position rotation with Rutter may indicate a need for another forward at Elland Road.
Leeds has struggled with late goals and the lack of impact from bench players, with Bamford, Gnonto, and Anthony all having only one goal each this season. Moore’s experience and solid playing style in the Championship could make him a valuable addition to the team, providing a no-nonsense aerial threat and goal-scoring ability.
Considering Bamford’s injury history, Moore could be a valuable short-term solution for Leeds, potentially sparking their promotion push.
