Leeds United have received disappointing news in their quest to sign a highly-rated player, as per a new report. The team is gearing up to play against Southampton in the Championship playoff final this weekend, leaving their division for the upcoming season uncertain.
This instability is causing complications in their transfer planning, as they will have to reevaluate their budget depending on which tier they end up in. As a result, Leeds may have to explore other options after learning that one of their potential summer targets, Edoardo Bove from Roma, may be staying put at his current club.
The 22-year-old impressed his manager and fans with a standout performance over the weekend, solidifying his place in his team. This could mean that Leeds will have to shift their focus to other players for now, potentially looking into alternatives like Gustavo Hamer.
With the final deciding their fate looming, Leeds United must keep their options open and prepare for a challenging week ahead.
