Leeds United are reportedly 'preparing' an offer for Red Bull Salzburg defender Maximilian Wober. That is according to Fabrizio Romano, who claims that the Whites are set to open talks over a deal that could reach €16 million including add-ons.
Wober is currently captain of Salzburg and would become the third player from the club to join Leeds in just two transfer windows following the arrivals of Brenden Aaronson and Rasmus Kristensen in the summer. The 24-year-old is equally adept at playing as both a left back and centre back, with Leeds very much in the market for the former in January.
According to transfermarkt, Wober has played 16 of his 19 matches for Salzburg this season, netting two goals and providing six assists. Some fans maybe sceptical of the fact he is a player who plays in both positions, though Wober is a player of decent pedigree given he is a 13-time capped Austria international, playing the majority of those matches at left back.
