Following his return from Borussia Mönchengladbach, Max Wober struggled to regain acceptance at Leeds United. Now, as Daniel Farke prepares the team for another season in the Premier League, the pressure to make the right additions grows.
Thankfully, the 49ers are ready to provide the financial support needed for new signings. Talks are underway for the potential arrival of Jaka Bijol, a defensive target from Udinese. Leeds were initially quoted £16million for the transfer, but negotiations are progressing with a final fee of £17m expected.
The addition of Bijol would provide competition and depth to the squad, essential for the challenges of the Premier League. It could also pave the way for Wober to secure a move away from Leeds, as he seeks regular playing time elsewhere.
Farke is focused on ensuring all players are committed to the project, and bringing in Bijol could be the first step towards achieving that goal. The team is gearing up for the new season, and this signing could be a solid foundation to build upon.
