Only a hair’s breadth separated Daniel Farke’s team from a spot in the Premier League as they fell short in the playoff final against Southampton at Wembley last month.
Leeds had their sights set on securing multiple deals in preparation for a potential Premier League campaign next season.
Among their targets was Roma sensation Bove, 22, with negotiations underway for a summer move to Elland Road.
Unfortunately, Leeds’ dreams were shattered when they missed out on promotion, thus ending their chances of bringing in the talented midfielder.
Despite Bove’s interest in a move to England, he is not willing to settle for the Championship with Leeds.
With the possibility of losing key players like Summerville looming, Leeds face a challenging summer ahead.
