Leeds United have made a bold move by tabling a £13 million offer for Sheffield United’s star player, Gustavo Hamer. Reports suggest that personal terms have been agreed upon by the player himself.
With the transfer deadline approaching on Friday, Leeds are expected to be active in the market as they look to finalize their squad for the upcoming season.
Despite Sheffield United rejecting Leeds’ initial bid for Hamer, it seems that negotiations are still ongoing. The Dutch midfielder has been in fine form this season, scoring two goals and providing an assist in the Championship.
According to TransferWatch.nl, Hamer is eager to join Leeds in their promotion bid and a deal is expected to be completed within a few days. Both clubs are hopeful that an agreement can be reached, despite the significant transfer fee involved.
If Leeds manage to secure the signature of Hamer, it would be a major coup for the club. Not only would they be strengthening their squad, but they would also be weakening a potential promotion rival. Hamer is considered one of the best midfielders in the division and has the quality to excel in the Premier League.
As negotiations continue, it remains to be seen whether Leeds will be successful in their pursuit of Hamer. The potential transfer would certainly be a surprise, given the financial implications and Sheffield United’s reluctance to sell to a competitor. Fans will have to wait anxiously to see how this transfer saga unfolds.
