Leeds United's midfield transfer links so far and how likely they are to sign

It’s been a busy start to the summer window at Leeds United with two first-team signings through the door and plenty of speculation over further additions. Brendan Aaronson joined the Whites for around £25million not long after Premier League safety was secured, while Rasmus Kristensen following in a £10millioj move on Wednesday.

With these two signings in the books, sights must now be set on securing the club’s two most vulnerable positions: central midfield and striker. The Whites were devastatingly short in midfield last season after Kalvin Phillips’ hamstring injury kept him out for the majority of the campaign - and it could have been much worse were it not for the surprisingly effective comeback of Adam Forshaw.

Stuart Dallas will be unavailable for a good chunk of the season after fracturing his femur against Manchester City, while Mateusz Klich and Forshaw slip further past their peak. Robin Koch has performed well defensively in the role but lacks the 360-degree vision to receive the ball in midfield.
