Assessing Leeds United's busiest summers in recent years as Whites continue influx of signings

Leeds United look set for their busiest summer of incoming signings for some time. Brenden Aaronson and Rasmus Kristensen's arrivals have now been followed by the addition of midfielder Marc Roca from Bayern Munich.

Meanwhile, there is an expectation that Victor Orta will also sign a new striker, with reports of a bid for PSG forward Arnaud Kalimuendo emerging yesterday. Leeds are also reportedly interested in another backup goalkeeper and will want to sign replacements for Kalvin Phillips and Raphinha, should the two stars leave the club. Alongside that, Manchester City youngster youngster Romeo Lavia could be included in a deal for Phillips, whilst further Under 23s signings are expected as Orta continues his strategy of buying top prospects that the club hope will serve to bulk out the first-team squad in time.

All of that work means this summer is likely to see the most incomings to the first-team squad since Victor Orta's first season at the club in 17/18, when they signed 16 players, with three of those being on loan. Here is a run down of Leeds' busiest summers in recent years, where we will assess how successful those summers actually were.
