REPORT: 11 (Eleven )Players Sign Reserve/Futures Contracts with the Leeds united
In an effort to maintain his finest players on the team, head coach Daniel Farke hasn’t been very active in the 2024 winter transfer window for the Whites.
Leeds, who were demoted to the Championship at the conclusion of the 2022–2023 season, are hoping to gain their instant return to the Premier League. They are in a strong position to earn an automatic promotion. Despite the Yorkshire team’s drop to the second division, Gnonto hasn’t developed into the star he may have thought he would, but he has still shown to be a useful asset for Farke.
Amidst transfer interest, Leeds is considering a new contract for Gnonto.
Gnonto, who appeared destined to leave Leeds, has had an intriguing 2023–24 season.
In August 2023, the winger handed in a transfer request, looking to force through a move to Everton after the Premier League outfit had multiple bids rejected for his services. Gnonto had requested to be withdrawn from the Leeds squad for a Carabao Cup fixture with Shrewsbury Town and Championship clashes with West Midlands duo Birmingham City and West Bromwich Albion.
The Toffees had bid up to £25m to lure Gnonto to Goodison Park, but Leeds stood firm and withheld offers from the Merseyside outfit. Later that month, the 20-year-old apologised for refusing to play for the club during the transfer saga. However, the Italy international remained at Leeds beyond the summer transfer window, involved in Farke’s squad, looking to return to the Premier League immediately
