Resolution may be in sight on Raphinha’s move to Barcelona and with that cash comes the big push to get Leeds United’s striker target over the line. With six additions already made before mid-July, the Whites have moved quickly and effectively in this transfer window.
A seventh face, in the form of a forward like Charles De Ketelaere, would draw a neat line under what’s become a summer of transition. However, the possibility of perhaps adding a back-up goalkeeper or extra left-back later in the window has been floated among fans.
An experienced stopper was considered in January when Victor Orta weighed up the club’s resources if Illan Meslier were to be unavailable. Kristoffer Klaesson is the current number two and he performed well in his one senior appearance as a sub at Molineux.
