Julien Naglesmann has already told Leeds United what Marc Roca will bring amid transfer links

Leeds United are reportedly closing in on their third signing of the summer with Bayern Munich midfielder Marc Roca said to be close to sealing a switch to Elland Road. According to various reports, the 25-year-old is set to follow Brenden Aaronson and Rasmus Kristensen through the door at the Whites to continue a busy start to the summer transfer window.

Leeds have been chasing a new midfielder for a number of months now and appear to have got their man, with Roca reportedly set to put pen to paper on a four-year contract, in a deal worth around £12 million. That will take Leeds’ spending to just shy of the £50 million mark, as they look to ensure a more successful season this time around.

Roca has struggled for regular game time since his move to Germany in 2020, but was very highly rated during his time at Espanyol, with Bayern beating several top clubs to his signature. While his spell at the Allianz may not have gone to plan, plenty of people at Bayern have had some good things to say about him during his time there.
