Leeds Transfer Rumours

31 Aug 2026 10:44:35
Gnonto gets the Here We Go from Fab and is on the way to Italy. Good luck to him. Loan with option with Fiorentina covering 100% of wages.

31 Aug 2026 11:06:24
That's interesting, given we said no unless someone comes in. Sad to see Willie go, but he does deserve a chance.

31 Aug 2026 11:13:02
Got to be 2 attackers lined up now.
It's either going to be exciting over the next 36 hours or a disaster.

31 Aug 2026 11:40:35
Yeah. Good luck, Willie. Get some game time. 👍

31 Aug 2026 11:43:26
So, we just give a player away with no replacement in first. Wow.

31 Aug 2026 11:45:51
Mudryk looking likely.

31 Aug 2026 14:25:36
There doesn't seem to be any one else but Mudryk in the press at the moment. The big sticking point is that Chelsea want guaranteed game time. My view is that, if he's good enough and fit enough, he'll get it. If not, he warms a bench at best. Imagine if that clause was in Buananotte's loan agreement. 😮☹️

31 Aug 2026 08:41:25
Need not to be Leedsy and leave till last hour. Have 2 days and still rumors of Mudryk. Need to have answer today and if a no or not had ok from Chelsea, pull out and move onto others. For me I’d definitely go for Matheus Mane.

I have been saying him for 2 months, young and can play different positions. Still then need a striker which looks tough; wasn’t over keen but would now take Flemming.

31 Aug 2026 10:26:26
Agreed, I'd take Mane.
Mudryk on loan.
Bahoya or Paixao signed.
Leite signed.
Loan a striker.

We need 2 wide attackers if Willy goes to Fiorentina. Don't blame him if he goes, Farke has never utilised him properly.

31 Aug 2026 10:36:40
Leeds' problem is they can't do quick business.
Take days for medicals.
I firmly believe (happy to be wrong) we are done in the window.

31 Aug 2026 10:58:02
We've lost our little Willy.

31 Aug 2026 11:07:36
Sorry to see Willie G go, but if he doesn't fit into the system, then he has to. Would prefer a sale or an obligation to buy. Gives us a bit more leeway in the last two days.
Chelsea might now be persuaded that Mudryk will get some time.


Would take Leite as a free agent - left footer.
Would like Fleming, but don't think it will happen, and also another fb.
If Willie and Mudryk are all we do, then we are too thin squad-wise.

31 Aug 2026 11:07:37
I'm hoping the M one is an expensive 2 yr loan with an option. Could suit both in terms of accounting.

31 Aug 2026 11:55:26
It might be better if it was big enough, Pedro. That would probably see his contract out. Zurich have a 40% sell on clause, so we won't make a fantastic amount of profit from a sale.

31 Aug 2026 07:55:45
Sunday’s edition of Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo reports that Marc Casado has interest from six Premier League clubs, including Leeds. Barcelona are reportedly willing to sell the 22-year-old, with around €30m previously cited as their asking price, while Casado is assessing his options before the deadline.

31 Aug 2026 10:41:24
Midfielder?

31 Aug 2026 11:10:19
Yes, a defensive one. Plays at the wrong end of the pitch for our greatest need.

31 Aug 2026 22:58:05
Really, we can't even get someone from Burnley, you think we're gona get someone for Barca lmao, no one is coming, we're done. I only hope it's enough.

31 Aug 2026 07:51:39
Looking less and less likely that we will see any new incomings other than maybe a loan or two. Noises coming out that we are at our SCR limits and very few believable rumours about players. This may be it, folks.

31 Aug 2026 10:37:43
I think there is nothing coming in.

31 Aug 2026 10:59:58
It's going to be Mudryk and we are then done.

31 Aug 2026 11:01:18
I'm a NITK, but feel 1 more will arrive! 2 if Willy goes!

31 Aug 2026 12:06:15
We're about 90%, just over the 85% limit on SCR. We can still go to 115% without penalty, but would have to claw it back over the next two seasons. The main thing is to ensure we stay up, have a decent squad going forward, and build on the two years in the Premier League.


We're probably one of the teams with the highest SCR at the moment, as we've made significant outlays and very little from sales.

31 Aug 2026 12:32:40
Correction. We stand 10th on SCR with £44m headroom. The ones who are supposedly over the predicted red limit at the moment are Chelsea and Bournemouth, who are about 128%.
The ones who have a lower % are basically the rest of the big 6, including Spurs (who all voted for SCR) , Sunderland and the three promoted teams.

31 Aug 2026 15:40:48
Bournemouth surprise me, they seem to buy low, sell high. They never seem to make much of a loss on a player, although I imagine TV revenue and ground monies are lower than some.

31 Aug 2026 16:09:18
When does the ER rebuild kick into our revenue? Is it the season after next - 28/29? That's not long.

31 Aug 2026 16:33:53
Bournemouth's problem is income. £7m on gate receipts, and £27m on commercial/sponsorship. Our comparative figures are £31m and £58m. The ER expansion should add £20m plus.
Bournemouth should be concerned if they get into Europe. The SCR will fall to 70% from 85, and although income will increase, so will expenditure.

More squad players will be required, and wages will probably go up, as contract clauses related to European qualification kick in.
That's why they have to keep selling, and may well have to let someone else, maybe Brooks, go if they are to get back to 115% SCR.

30 Aug 2026 12:31:20
Question for the ITK's, is DF blocking Igor Paixao transfer? Seems Sunderland are now close or is this poppycock?

30 Aug 2026 16:00:02
The thing blocking Paxo is the price. Even though Marseille have lowered their expectations, he'd still cost more than we can afford. If we'd only spent £25M on a new goalkeeper instead of £40M, we might have had enough left in the kitty to afford him or someone else in that price bracket.

30 Aug 2026 16:04:46
What JR said.

30 Aug 2026 16:28:09
Smile and wave!

30 Aug 2026 17:12:16
We've probably slightly exceeded our SCR of 85%, and although we've still about 25% leeway left this season before there are serious penalties, I don't think there will be any major outlays unless Willie G goes.

It does leave some freedom in the January window.
I would hope, though, that there are a couple of loan deals in the last couple of days, as we are short in some areas.

31 Aug 2026 00:05:58
Who said we are even after him?

We need some bugger though.

31 Aug 2026 00:31:15
Alltogether now.
.

: All we are saying..is sign us some players " 🎵 #number9/10.

31 Aug 2026 01:57:07
During Saturday's match at Bournemouth, Everton fans sang a warning chant to their board to block the sale of Harrison Armstrong to Forest. Maybe our fans missed a trick yesterday. 35,000 fans singing "give us a new sign (ing) " might have given the recruitment.

31 Aug 2026 07:30:07
Or, more to the point, a chant of: Sign a striker.

31 Aug 2026 07:55:57
Paixao will go abroad.

31 Aug 2026 09:33:02
Should stay well clear of Paixao. Pretty clear last summer and this, that he doesn't really want to play with us.

What we need desperately is another LWB, a striker and another CB.



Not looking good this late in the window, which will be very disappointing. They messed up late on last summer, and we are heading for a repeat after so many good signings early doors.

31 Aug 2026 10:10:27
No further signings. It's a 6/10 window at best.

29 Aug 2026 20:04:28
Zetterer deal and Perri deals both done. Perri is a loan by all accounts.

29 Aug 2026 20:25:58
£4.2m was the fee for Zet. Be interesting to know the salary.

30 Aug 2026 08:38:25
He was on about £62k per week at Eintracht. Leeds' first offer for a back up keeper wasn't acceptable to him, so they raised it to "meet his expectations".
I assume that we've at least matched, but probably improved on his Eintracht contract.

30 Aug 2026 09:59:03
Surprisingly, Atubolo, who Eintracht have on loan with an option to buy, is on slightly under £20k per week.

30 Aug 2026 11:18:24
Another reason we should've gone for him. Could've afforded a top striker too.

29 Aug 2026 10:42:07
Rumours this morning that Fiorentina have made contact for Willy Gnonto, no idea if it's to purchase or a loan. It could be a hectic few days, maybe Underwood and co will have to work this weekend.

29 Aug 2026 11:50:28
That injury he sustained cleared up remarkably quick!

29 Aug 2026 12:27:56
The club wants it to be a permanent move if he goes.

29 Aug 2026 12:36:17
Given his ability to play left side, where we are already light, going to need a replacement lined up.

29 Aug 2026 12:38:21
Looks like it's a loan deal being discussed. I want Margot Robbie to be my wife, but it's not happening, is it?

29 Aug 2026 12:48:55
Nah, Waccoe, like Willy, she don't score very often.

29 Aug 2026 12:54:07
I think he's going.

29 Aug 2026 13:13:28
We need play coming in, not going out. Willie G had a good pre season, especially as WB. It would just stretch the squad even further, unless we've got a replacement lined up.
There's not much profit in selling him unless it's a big price, as Zurich have a 40% sell on clause.
Harder also talking to Sevilla, so that one might not work out either.

29 Aug 2026 16:22:38
Heard she's a rubbish cook, so it's a No for Margo from Chris Chris. 👎😂


Lust is very overrated. 😂

29 Aug 2026 18:53:26
Surely, we can allow Gnonto to go on a loan. That's ridiculous.

29 Aug 2026 19:45:27
I suppose, if we get Mudryk in on loan, you wouldn't necessarily mind Gnonto going out on loan, as his value would increase, you would hope, with regular football.

29 Aug 2026 20:04:02
Are you referring to the Leeds United Supporters Trust, Chris?

29 Aug 2026 20:18:58
😂😂😂 Good un, Alf.

30 Aug 2026 19:49:36
You can have Margot Robbie, it's Sydney Sweeney for me please.

31 Aug 2026 08:25:01
Gnonto going out on loan with no option might be ok if he agrees to extend by a year. Could demonstrate value, and we can't really deny him an opportunity. He's only a kid, but not getting younger.

29 Aug 2026 09:47:15
New name (to me) appeared on the rumour mill today, Emerson Pata, a 22 yr old LW with Ecuadorian side Independiente del Valle. Ipswich, Bayer Leverkusen and Sunderland (them again) also allegedly sniffing.

29 Aug 2026 13:05:31
Zero chance of a work permit for a 22 year old.

28 Aug 2026 21:00:40
A few PJs tomorrow. Liverpool late morning, Elliott maybe?

28 Aug 2026 21:41:09
I'm a fan of Elliott, but we don't need another midfielder.

28 Aug 2026 21:52:37
Going to Valencia.

28 Aug 2026 22:22:27
He's agreed personal terms, but not sure if Valencia have agreed terms yet.

28 Aug 2026 22:43:55
Private jet from Liverpool lol. Quicker to drive.

29 Aug 2026 07:30:29
Or helicopter...

29 Aug 2026 08:15:41
Valencia don't have the money to buy Elliot. If they have, why are they delaying Ramz's transfer on a permanent basis?
They'll want Elliot on a loan which probably means he'll have to sign a contract extension.

29 Aug 2026 09:46:45
Dunelm, they have money.
They're just taking the urine out of us with Largie, just like Betis did with Roca & Llorente.

Largie has to make his mind up, but we need to dictate what we accept for him.
Do not bend to Valencia lowballing.

He can rot away his career if he isn't careful.

29 Aug 2026 13:19:27
Absolutely agree, Dave. Sometimes you need to make a stand. Set the price and stick to it.

28 Aug 2026 15:32:06
Zetterer ✅
Forward pending

28 Aug 2026 21:11:42
Insightful.

28 Aug 2026 21:27:28
Let's hope so, Cress. Ignore certain merchants on here.

28 Aug 2026 23:17:57
I trust ITK sources that say signing a striker is unlikely, thanks.
