Rasmus Kristensen’s departure from Leeds United could be finalized today as he is reportedly in Germany to undergo a medical with Eintracht Frankfurt.
After a challenging loan spell at AS Roma last season, Kristensen is set to leave Elland Road again, this time on a season-long loan with an option-to-buy of £15 million, a fee that seems unlikely to be met unless his fortunes drastically improve.
This transfer will mark the 14th official exit for Leeds this summer, with more expected to follow. The uncertainty surrounding Kristensen’s future was resolved by his desire to move and the swift negotiations with Frankfurt.
Meanwhile, Max Wober remains the last player from last summer’s loan army whose future is uncertain. Despite a successful season at Borussia Monchengladbach, a permanent move seems out of reach. Transfer expert Graeme Bailey suggests that Wober, along with Kristensen, could be headed back to Germany.
With Kristensen’s departure leaving Leeds thin at right-back, Jayden Bogle has been identified as a potential reinforcement by Daniel Farke. Negotiations with Sheffield United are ongoing, and it seems that Bogle is keen on a move to Elland Road, making a deal likely in the near future.
