Leeds United key player Ben Godfrey sustained a neck injury with two legs broken …..
The January transfer window is nearing its end, and Leeds United may have some exciting moments ahead of them. As they work to fill the gaps on their roster over the next days, the Whites are being linked to a number of players.
After letting Djed Spence and Luke Ayling go earlier in the transfer season, it appears that the club is prioritizing defensive reinforcements, but they are also reportedly interested in a number of players with an attacking mindset. Here are a few transfer stories that have recently surfaced from Elland Road.
Leeds United still hasn’t been able to persuade Everton to cooperate in their efforts to sign Ben Godfrey this month. That’s according to David Ornstein of The Athletic, who says Leeds has inquired about signing the defender this month. If he becomes available, there appear to be a lot of choices.
In an attempt to bolster their backline for the second half of the season, the Whites have been heavily linked to a transfer for the Everton player. Daniel Farke has worked with Godfrey at Norwich City, so he is obviously familiar with him. The 26-year-old York native’s flexibility may also be a draw.
Sacha Tavolieri, a Belgian reporter, claims that Leeds United is still in the running to sign Burnley’s Manuel Benson this month. It was reported earlier this week that Benson was almost certain to transfer to Southampton, with the two teams working out a loan agreement for the winger.
But according to Tavolieri, Leeds is still making an effort to sign the attacker, and further negotiations are scheduled for this coming Wednesday. It’s important to note that Gnonto, who now appears likely to remain at Elland Road until the conclusion of the transfer window, was supposed to be replaced by Benson, according to what the same writer said last week.
