Leeds have had a rollercoaster start to the Premier League season, with a win over Everton but a heavy defeat to Arsenal and an EFL Cup loss to Sheffield Wednesday.
Injuries to midfielders Ao Tanaka and Ethan Ampadu have exposed Leeds’ lack of depth in that area, leading to speculation about a potential addition to the squad.
Sheffield United’s Gus Hamer has been identified as a possible solution, with the midfielder reportedly available for a loan-with-obligation-to-buy deal. Hamer’s attacking prowess and experience in the Premier League make him an attractive prospect for Leeds.
Sheffield United manager Ruben Selles has expressed his desire to keep Hamer at the club, but with Leeds in need of reinforcements, a move for the midfielder could be on the cards before the transfer window closes. It remains to be seen whether Farke will make a move for the talented midfielder in time to bolster his squad for the challenges ahead.
