Farke stated at yesterday’s press conference that Leeds will continue to try until the window closes at 11 p.m., even though the team hasn’t made a single January addition.
Leeds’ defense appears to be their top concern, as evidenced by the ties to several prospects over the past month. According to Farke, the Whites are almost done signing one or two players, but it won’t matter if there are no new arrivals by tonight.

Ben Godfrey of Everton is one player who has been frequently linked to a move to Elland Road; Farke has apparently been pressing for the 26-year-old player over the past few days.

Naturally, Farke knows Godfrey well from his days at Norwich City. According to transfer source Dean Jones, in an interview with Give Me Sport, that connection could help pull off a “unbelievable signing” today.

“If they could pull that off, Ben Godfrey would be an incredible signing,” he stated. I believe that the quality of Ben Godfrey has been overlooked.

In addition to getting someone who might be the top center back in that league on a short-term contract, if that were possible, you could also have full-back coverage on both sides.
