Leeds transfer rumours as Everton to rival Whites in the race for Club Brugge goalkeeper Senne Lammens

Here are your latest Leeds United transfer rumours for Tuesday, January 31.

Everton 'join' Senne Lammens race

Premier League rivals Everton have joined the race to sign Leeds target and Club Brugge goalkeeper Senne Lammens, as per reports from Belgian outlet Nieuwsblad.

Lammens has six months left on his contract, and wants to leave Club Brugge, according to the club's goalkeeping coach Peter Mollez.

Reports earlier this month suggested that Leeds were on the verge of completing a deal for the 20-year-old. However, Everton have now entered the frame, and Belgian side Royal Antwerp are also keen.

It looks likely that Lammens could sign a pre-contract agreement, or that Club Brugge will sell him at a cut-price deal before the 11pm deadline.

The Belgium under-21 international has been behind first-choice goalkeeper and ex-Liverpool and Sunderland stopper Simon Mignolet in the pecking order in Brugge.

Lammens has made seven senior appearances for his current employers, but has failed is yet to play a single minute for the first team this term.

Everton 'in talks' with ex-Leeds target Viktor Gyokeres

Everton are eying up a number of late moves in the transfer market, and former Leeds target Viktor Gyokeres could be another potential candidate for the Toffees.

Leeds were linked with the Coventry City forward before they splashed out a club record fee to sign Georginio Rutter from Hoffenheim earlier this month.

Coventry have been defiant in their response to speculation over his future by insisting that the Swedish forward will remain at the CBS Arena this month.

However, Football Insider have claimed that Everton are discussing a deal to bring Gyokeres to Goodison Park before the January transfer window slams shuts.

The report adds that Coventry are demanding £18 million, but Everton believe that a fee of £15 million should be enough to seal a deal. Che Adams, who is another player who has been linked with Leeds in recent months, is also on the Toffees' radar.

Gyokeres has scored 31 goals in 76 appearances since the start of the 2021-22 season, and has netted 12 goals in 18 outings in the Championship this term.
