Jesse Marsch and Victor Orta conducted a meeting last week to plan what the upcoming summer transfer window could look like for Leeds United. Of course, the level of player they target will depend heavily on the division they are playing their football in next season, although survival is within touching distance.
Rather than discussing specific player names, Marsch revealed he and Orta spoke to the scouting department about the specific attributes needed across different positions to fit into his style. Marsch plays a completely contrasting style to his predecessor Marcelo Bielsa in and out of possession, and so will need to build a squad that suits him.
At previous clubs RB Salzburg and RB Leipzig, a fairly clear pattern emerges on the types of players he targets in transfer windows. So with that in mind, here is a look at his three summers at those clubs, and what it could tell us about Leeds’ transfer policy in the coming months.
