Leeds United aren’t the only club being linked to Swansea City striker Joel Piroe this summer. In fact, the Whites are one of a handful of teams supposedly keeping tabs on the Dutchman alongside the likes of Leicester City, Everton, Nottingham Forest and Southampton.
But, if The Athletic report of Leeds’ interest is accurate, it shows the Whites are certainly on the right track in the transfer market as they look to build a squad capable of bouncing back to the Premier League at the first time of asking. Piroe is only 23 and he has limited experience of playing top flight football, but the form he has shown with Swansea City over the last couple of seasons has only served to underline the high level of talent he possesses.
He knows how to find the back of the net in the second tier. The Dutchman bagged 22 goals in his first season with the Swans under Russell Martin as he hit the ground running in South Wales following his switch from PSV Eindhoven in 2021.
