Leeds United’s summer transfer deadline day of 2025 turned out to be a disappointing affair as the club failed to secure any new signings, leaving the fanbase frustrated and questioning the decisions made by the club’s management.
The last-minute attempt to sign Emi Buendia and then Harry Wilson both ended in failure, further adding to the sense of disappointment among Leeds supporters. The lack of incoming transfers on deadline day has led to criticism of the club’s owners, the 49ers, with trust in them reaching an all-time low.
One of the few deals that Leeds did complete was the permanent transfer of Darko Gyabi to Hull City. However, the club’s social media silence on this move, as well as their overall lack of communication regarding the transfer deadline day activities, has only fueled the discontent among fans.
The failure to address the squad’s weaknesses and the lack of investment in new players has increased concerns about Leeds’ prospects in the Premier League. With the team struggling to score goals and show attacking prowess, the blame has been placed squarely on the 49ers for their apparent lack of ambition in the transfer market.
As the mood among supporters turns more sour, the spotlight has also fallen on manager Daniel Farke, who some fans feel has been left in a difficult position due to the lack of reinforcements. Overall, the lack of deadline day spending and the club’s handling of the transfer window has left Leeds United and its fans in a state of frustration and disappointment.
