Leeds United would have hoped to have secured their Premier League status for 2022/23 much sooner than the final day of the season but it was clear soon after the final whistle blew at the Brentford Community Stadium that Victor Orta had already been busy on deals for the summer. News quickly broke that a deal was in-place to bring RB Salzburg's Brenden Aaronson to Elland Road and Leeds' survival confirmed that the deal would go ahead.
The American international's signing was made official less than two weeks after the end of the season and he was soon followed to Leeds by Sazburg's Danish international right-back, Rasmus Kristensen. It appears that Orta is now working on a deal to bring Bayern Munich midfielder, Marc Roca to the club next, as Leeds' squad rebuild continues at pace.
These deals are just the beginning, as the Spaniard has much work to do in the window, as Leeds' squad badly struggled to survive the rigours of their second season in the Premier League. Jesse Marsch arrived at the club in late February, replacing the departed Marcelo Bielsa, and was put into a situation where he was fighting fires in order to keep the team in the division.
