Leeds United’s striker search continues with Julian Quinones, the latest in a long line of names linked with the Yorkshire club. Jesse Marsch is reportedly a big admirer of the Colombian, who has played in Mexico his entire career.
According to the initial report from Foot Mercato, Marsch has long admired Quinones, who has many redeeming qualities as a player. The 25-year-old has made 164 appearances in his career, scoring 49 goals and registering 18 assists. He scored 14 goals from 42 games in the 2021-22 season for Atlas Guadalajara, including three crucial goals over the semi-final and final to help the club to the title.
Quinones has the versatility to play as a centre-forward or on either wing. Therefore, he could provide the cover that has been lacking for Patrick Bamford while also helping fill the void left by Raphinha.
