Leeds United 'make offer' for PSG striker as Whites look to steal march on Newcastle

Leeds United have made an offer in the region of €20 million for PSG striker Arnaud Kalimuendo, according to Media Foot Marseille. They claim that the Whites have looked to steal a march on Newcastle United with reports suggesting Kalimuendo is unconvinced by the Magpies' project despite their interest.

PSG sporting director Luis Campos is open to selling Kalimuendo this summer as he sits behind Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, Neymar, Mauro Icardi and new signing Hugo Ekitike in the pecking order. Campos is keen to receive between €20 and €25 million for Kalimuendo, so it looks as though Leeds' offer is a decent starting point.

Leeds have earmarked him as someone who could strengthen their forward line and if reports are to be believed, have accelerated their interest after losing out on Charles de Ketelaere to AC Milan. Kalimuendo is a different type of attacker to de Ketelaere but would provide another quality option on top of Patrick Bamford and Joe Gelhardt.
