As the January transfer window approaches, Leeds United is expected to be active in both incoming and outgoing transfers. Manager Daniel Farke is looking to correct the mistakes made in the previous January window.
In January 2024, Leeds needed reinforcements in the form of a centre-back, striker, and possibly a no.10 player. However, they only managed to secure a loan deal for Connor Roberts.
This time around, Leeds have already made a signing in Josuha Guilavogui since the summer. The team could benefit from additional cover at centre-back, a new striker, and another creative midfielder.
To make room for potential new signings, Leeds may have to offload some players. Here are five players who could potentially leave the club in the upcoming window:
- Joe Gelhardt – The 22-year-old forward, who has already been on loan, is now fourth-choice and may benefit from a move elsewhere.
- Max Wober – The Austrian defender, who has experience in top European competitions, finds himself on the bench in the Championship and may seek a new challenge.
- Patrick Bamford – After expressing his desire to leave Leeds following relegation, Bamford, now third choice, may look for regular playing time elsewhere.
- Junior Firpo – While it would be surprising to see Firpo depart, his contract is set to expire next summer and he may attract interest from clubs outside of England.
- Manor Solomon – The Israeli winger showed promise in his debut but has struggled to make an impact since. Tottenham, who have the option to end his loan deal, may decide to part ways with him.
Overall, Leeds United could see some changes in their squad during the January transfer window as they aim to strengthen and improve their team.
