Leeds United transfer rumours as Whites €3 million short of Gnonto valuation and Batshuayi reports emerge

Here are the latest Leeds United transfer rumours on Wednesday, 24 August 2022.

Gnonto value

Leeds United’s latest offer for Wilfried Gnonto is reportedly €3 million short of FC Zurich’s valuation of the striker. That is according to Corriere dello Sport, who claim Leeds have made a bid of around €5 million, but the Swiss side are seeking closer to €8 million.

Gnonto is said to be ‘waiting to know his future in the last days of the transfer market’ as he has just 12 months left to run on his current deal. Jesse Marsch has already publicly confirmed the Italy international is a player Leeds are aware of.

Batshuayi linked

Leeds United are reportedly one of the potential solutions to the future of Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi. That is according to journalist Sacha Tavolieri, who claims the Whites and Newcastle United are in the race with Chelsea seeking a permanent sale.

Reports indicated earlier in the window that Everton was Batshuayi’s most likely destination, but Tavolieri says that is no longer the case as the Belgian does not suit Frank Lampard’s style. Leeds remain vigilant in the market over potential striker opportunities.

James stance

Leeds United reportedly have no interest in selling Daniel James this summer amid interest from Tottenham Hotspur. That is according to Football Insider, who claim Spurs have the Welshman as one of their options as they look to recruit another wide forward.

James only arrived at Elland Road on deadline day 12 months ago as Leeds paid Manchester United £25 million for his signature. He has featured in each of Leeds’ last two Premier League games, indicating he is still very much part of Jesse Marsch’s plans.
