Leeds United have seen a €4million bid rejected by FC Koln for midfielder Dejan Ljubicic.
The 26 year old has 12 months remaining on his current contract, and is not expected to sign a new deal at Koln who were relegated from the Bundesliga last season.
Ljubicic made 26 appearances in the Bundesliga last campaign, and Leeds are expected to bid again for the Austrian who has 9 international caps.

Decent player if under £5 million ok
but do we really need him?
imo we need at least one other goal scoring ( 8 goals plus a season) box to box mf player . we don't have thst!
We definitely need one.
2.) 25 Jul 2024 15:08:33
Under 5. Can it hurt. got to be depth right.
3.) 25 Jul 2024 16:23:38
Yeah on this point. fair enough Aus. strength in depth needed for 46 game marathon slog.
4.) 26 Jul 2024 09:47:09
Rothwell could well be that scoring midfielder Baz, if you give him half a chance.
5.) 26 Jul 2024 10:14:32
Rothwell career scoring stats strongly suggest otherwise Cuppa
Please keep it real.
22 Jul 2024 14:45:54
Crystal Palace’s Jerusun Rak-Sakyi being linked in recent days.
1.) 22 Jul 2024 15:49:52
Saints have put in a £12m bid for him apparently.
2.) 22 Jul 2024 16:59:26
Sounds a bit rich for us unless we cash in on an existing asset.
3.) 22 Jul 2024 18:11:18
By the sounds of it, Palace wanna keep him but loan him somewhere that he'll get minutes.
Think were only going to loan him if Cry or Gnonto go.
Money talks tho. Palace may sell him for that.
4.) 23 Jul 2024 08:15:32
Think palace have said no sale to prem?
5.) 23 Jul 2024 10:32:26
Very surprised if Palace sold him to a potential relegation rival.
20 Jul 2024 21:28:39
Leeds have made an enquiry with Crystal Palace for winger Jesurun Rak-Sakyi, who netted 15 times in League One for Charlton last season.
1.) 20 Jul 2024 23:05:17
Was the season before last Alf. Had a few injuries last season. Not sure we need him unless one of Gnonto or Cry goes. Definitely a player of quality tho.
17 Jul 2024 17:29:14
Leeds United are considering a move for Republic of Ireland U21 international Anselmo Garcia MacNulty as a possible replacement for Junior Firpo.
1.) 17 Jul 2024 19:05:39
Heard his name all Summer but not watched him. They say he's decent.
2.) 17 Jul 2024 20:08:52
More boardroom eavesdropping whilst serving tea ? and bourbons ?.
3.) 18 Jul 2024 06:49:47
These Yanks like cwofee and Reeses George for some reason.
07 Jul 2024 13:59:01
Llorente off to Betis for €3m.
1.) 07 Jul 2024 14:16:57
Shocking fee
Another Victor special.
2.) 07 Jul 2024 15:37:56
Agree Baz, but at least it's big wages off the books.
3.) 07 Jul 2024 15:44:57
Exactly Dill. He wasn't worth 3 pounds IMO.
4.) 07 Jul 2024 16:02:12
?? will take owt we can get for him tbh, but was expecting more than that.
5.) 10 Jul 2024 15:31:57
His transfer done and official.

Not sure if it's already been mentioned but club captain confirmed as Amps, with Struijk and Meslier as vice captains. Not sure about the Meslier option myself but the other 2 are good calls.
1.) 25 Jul 2024 03:49:38
You just read your own posts Alf ?.

Beat Hannover 4 1 with Gruev, Piroe and Joseph (brace) on the score sheet.
1.) 24 Jul 2024 18:20:05
Let's go MJ!
2.) 24 Jul 2024 18:59:31
Sounds promising.
3.) 24 Jul 2024 19:31:28
Well done MJ.
4.) 24 Jul 2024 19:41:40
Watched the highlights. Lovely CF movement from MJ for both his goals. Gnonto assist for his first was a nice pass, released at just the right time as well. Bogle assisted the other.
Looks like Hannover had a mare trying to play out from the back.
5.) 24 Jul 2024 20:53:58
Thought we looked class. We was unlucky last season this year will be our year! I’m farke we trust.
6.) 24 Jul 2024 23:09:28
Brilliant Aaronson assist for the first goal. I thought he looked pretty good.
7.) 25 Jul 2024 04:42:46
Looked ok on shortened highlights. Hard to gauge against what’s prob league 2 opponents.
8.) 25 Jul 2024 05:44:11
Sorry, was Cry not Gnonto who set MJ's first up. My bad.
9.) 25 Jul 2024 17:57:38
Not sure "League 2" is fair Aus. They were sixth in the "German Championship" last season, only losing 8 times?
Their season starts next week, so arguably further along the fitness path than us. They were better than Harrogate, that are a real league 2 side.
11 Jul 2024 11:42:00
Elland Road Limited is now wholly owned by Leeds United Football Club Limited. Wonderful news.
1.) 11 Jul 2024 11:50:34
Indeed. Now that is genuinely good news Cuppa Alf.
2.) 11 Jul 2024 12:03:44
Took 2 decades. Sign of sincerity from genuine owners.
3.) 11 Jul 2024 12:28:55
Excellent news. Is Thorpe Arch on the buy back agenda as well?
4.) 11 Jul 2024 13:34:59
Feath I think the club are eyeing up a new training ground elsewhere before end of decade which may see them eventually move from TA which I believe is owned by a third party and leased to them.
5.) 11 Jul 2024 14:41:12
Is that the old Matthew Murray school site George?
6.) 11 Jul 2024 15:48:20
Feath That was rumoured to be the site of interest but that story went quiet for a couple of years.
7.) 11 Jul 2024 18:13:43
Has Matthew Murray been knocked down?
8.) 11 Jul 2024 20:12:36
Been knocked down for years pal. I was working on the Colensos earlier today round corner.
9.) 11 Jul 2024 20:33:39
Feath Most recent information I have seen is that LUFC quietly abandoned their plans for the former MM site.
02 Jul 2024 19:40:05
Leeds United rejected a £30 million bid from Brighton for Georginio Rutter in the last 48 hours.
1.) 02 Jul 2024 21:02:41
Brighton you say.
£60 million . not a penny less.
2.) 02 Jul 2024 21:19:21
They’ll have bid for most of our players before the summer is up if they carry on!
3.) 02 Jul 2024 22:37:33
Glad to hear we've rejected it!
4.) 02 Jul 2024 22:54:37
Make them pay through the nose!
5.) 02 Jul 2024 23:56:44
Indeed LUFCfeath. scrub £60 milluon make it £80 million.
Personally hope we do NOT sell any of our forward players specifically to Brighton . and if we really were to do then only for way over the top valuation.
6.) 02 Jul 2024 23:58:45
Simply don’t sell. He above anybody else we keep. Unless over 50. Could replace him for that.
7.) 03 Jul 2024 01:42:51
Agree with Aus on GR.
8.) 03 Jul 2024 07:41:39
Rutter is our main ticket to promotion, don’t think they’ll sell him. In fact it wouldn’t be wise to sell any of our attackers, even Piroe it’s not like he can’t score goals, fourteen was not bad. Farke needs to utilize him better.
We do need a LB and RB and our midfield needs sorting out, it struggled last season and was in my opinion the main reason we didn’t make promotion.
9.) 03 Jul 2024 09:21:14
He's useful enough to throw on at the end of games, but he's nowhere near good enough to start. Struggles in the different phases of the game and is too unathletic and slow to get around the pitch as much as we need him to.
19 Jun 2024 14:35:30
Rodon available for 10m apparently. Think Wober could have an impact on whether we go for him or not.
1.) 19 Jun 2024 17:15:11
Alfie Cuppa . more chance of you having an afternoon brew with Lewis Carroll character The Mad Hatter thsn JR playing for Leeds this season . he be lower prem bound
I would insist on keeping Wober. definitely no more loaning him out.
2.) 19 Jun 2024 17:16:50
Would be a no brainer, for me. Get rid of Wober and get Rodon in. Rodon>Wober any day of the week and twice on Sundays.
3.) 19 Jun 2024 17:21:47
Dill ain't going to happen with JR . that ship sailed at end of playoff meltdown.
4.) 19 Jun 2024 17:38:30
I have done that several times in the past so you are correct for once Baz.
5.) 19 Jun 2024 20:49:09
Seems unlikely at this juncture doesn't it, Baz. Ronnie Edwards would be who I'd target if JR deal is off. Really think he'd excel with us.
6.) 19 Jun 2024 22:21:29
Ronnie Edwards pretty sure that’s the geezer Kagey was banging on about?
7.) 19 Jun 2024 22:51:01
Not sure who Kagey is, Cork, but I scouted Edwards previously for the EFL signings article that got posted on here. Here's a refresher:
RONNIE EDWARDS - 21 - CB - Peterborough
With Posh missing out on promotion this season, there are a few players who can definitely make the step up to Champo level, with Edwards being one of them. The ball-playing CB has a commanding stature and brilliant positional sense whether for his defensive duties or receiving passes. Edwards is dominant in the air, but also a strong tackler and passer of the ball who bares similarities to John Stones, being he can do it all (albeit at a lower level) . The 21-year-old is a proper talent who I can't see staying in League 1 after this season's performances. A complete modern centre back who could excel given the opportunity to play at a higher level. It's believed Posh have slapped a £10m price tag on Edwards, but there's certainly room for negotiation given his contract is up in 2025 and Peterborough have now lost in the League 1 play offs.
8.) 20 Jun 2024 01:49:14
Dill
Kagey os a pretty good content creator . as are Ger and Lockie
All three are marginallly better imo than Just Joe and Connor Mac who are rated by quite a few.
9.) 20 Jun 2024 04:06:10
A Declan MacManus formed bandwagon from London Road via Loftus Road? ?.
10.) 20 Jun 2024 07:05:13
Cheers Baz ?.
11.) 20 Jun 2024 17:54:52
Baz Gone off Conor. No longer watch his content. I agree with your top 3.
12.) 20 Jun 2024 19:09:27
Agreed ? Georgey . I did tell thee previously that Connor wasn't anywhere as good as tne 3 others.
26 Jul 2024 09:47:09
Rothwell could well be that scoring midfielder Baz, if you give him half a chance.
26 Jul 2024 09:46:00
I'm sure he will Dill.
22 Jul 2024 16:59:26
Sounds a bit rich for us unless we cash in on an existing asset.
18 Jul 2024 06:49:47
These Yanks like cwofee and Reeses George for some reason.
17 Jul 2024 17:30:16
wouldnt be upset if Firpo leaves - we can easily replace him imo and his wages will be through the roof.
24 Jul 2024 21:13:35
Farke has indicated we will only be buying to replace now. I can see us loaning a few more but I don't expect any more purchases unless we lose key men.
24 Jul 2024 17:16:35
Don't think we are in for him.
23 Jul 2024 09:26:00
Agree Dill, Szmodics would be a poor signing for us.
22 Jul 2024 20:55:53
Not true tinters then are they? That's my point. You can't label someone something if they act the opposite.
22 Jul 2024 17:01:01
Fulham also interested allegedly.
