Gill Backup Move Denied, Sulc Not An Active Target, Perri to Torino Nearly Done, Bornauw Interest
New Leeds United Pre Match Jersey-Blue: https://leedsunited.sjv.io/L0rvEL New Leeds Offcial Pre Match Tee Yellow and blue: https://leedsunited.sjv.io/dyZZqM 🔔Genuine movement on the goalkeeper situation, confirmed interest in a fringe defender, and an update on where Leeds actually stand in a crowded midfield race. We start by knocking down an overstated goalkeeper rumour — Orlando Gill is a genuine name on Leeds' shortlist for Trafford's deputy, but no formal offer has been made, contrary to reports out of Paraguay. Lucas Perri's move to Torino is now in its final stages, per Gianluca Di Marzio — a loan with an option to buy, tied directly to Trafford's own deal completing. Hamburg's sporting director has gone on record confirming genuine interest in Sebastiaan Bornauw — though his own performances on the US tour suggest he's very much part of Daniel Farke's plans. We also look into a Max Aarons link that doesn't add up on closer inspection, and break down a genuine two-club race for Joe Gelhardt between Birmingham and Hull. Plus: the latest on Pavel Šulc, where Leeds' interest has actually stalled while Aston Villa and Everton have become the more active rivals. If you enjoyed this one, make sure to subscribe and hit the bell so you never miss a video, leave a like, and let me know in the comments if you think Leeds should push harder for Šulc before Villa get there first. #LUFC #LeedsUnited #PremierLeague #Transfers Learn more about your ad choices.

Trafford Medical Done, Farke's Vision Outlined, Is Marseille Meltdown Leeds United's Route to Paixão
New Leeds United Pre Match Jersey-Blue: https://leedsunited.sjv.io/L0rvEL New Leeds Official Pre Match Tee Yellow and blue: https://leedsunited.sjv.io/dyZZqM 🔔Your Leeds United wrap-up — the biggest signing of the summer edges over the line, Daniel Farke lays out his long-term vision, a youngster heads out on loan, and we ask whether Leeds are simply waiting out a crisis in Marseille. James Trafford has completed his medical ahead of a club-record £40m move from Manchester City — about as close to confirmed as it gets before an official announcement. Daniel Farke's Men In Blazers interview: why a top-class goalkeeper matters so much, and his honest, staged vision for where Leeds can realistically go — top half this year, Europe a few years down the line. Charlie Crew has joined League Two side Walsall on a season-long loan, his third temporary Leeds exit. Opinion: with Marseille facing genuine financial turmoil and talk of administrative relegation, are Leeds simply waiting for the price on Igor Paixão to drop further rather than moving now? Plus: Leeds' Under-21s learn their National League Cup group opponents, and full details on this weekend's unusual friendly format against RB Leipzig.

Šulc Departure Signs, Paixão Returns, Tresoldi Chase Heats Up & LB Options. Leeds United Transfers
New Leeds United Pre Match Jersey-Blue: https://leedsunited.sjv.io/L0rvEL New Leeds Offcial Pre Match Tee Yellow and blue: https://leedsunited.sjv.io/dyZZqM 🔔 Your weekend Transfer Talk wrap-up — five names, the full story on each, and a credibility check on every source so you know what's real and what's noise. Pavel Šulc — genuine smoke here. The Lyon midfielder has been pulled from training, left out of a Champions League squad, and three separate French sources are pointing towards departure, with Leeds specifically named as leading a chase. Igor Paixão — a name from last summer's saga resurfaces. Graham Smyth says Leeds are evaluating him again, but a Leeds Live report from just days earlier said the opposite. We lay out both sides. Jacques Ekomié — a left-back option that makes sense on paper for Gudmundsson cover, though the concrete transfer interest reported so far belongs to Sunderland, not Leeds. Nicolò Tresoldi — the real movement this week is Manchester United's interest hardening, while Club Brugge's position hasn't budged an inch for anyone. Amadou Koné — a player Leeds tried to sign before, back in the picture, with Hull City reportedly the most active of four interested clubs right now.

Tresoldi & Koné Latest Linked, Perri's Torino Medical Confusion,Espí Joins Real Madrid. Leeds United
New Leeds United Pre Match Jersey-Blue: https://leedsunited.sjv.io/L0rvEL New Leeds Official Pre Match Tee Yellow and blue: https://leedsunited.sjv.io/dyZZqM 🔔 One striker target confirmed lost, two fresh names entering the picture, and a genuine bit of confusion over Lucas Perri's move to Torino. Carlos Espí has joined Real Madrid, closing the book on Leeds' interest — which, per sources, was never truly serious to begin with. Nicolò Tresoldi: the Club Brugge striker is genuinely wanted by Leeds and three other Premier League clubs, but Brugge's president has made clear he's not for sale. Amadou Koné: Leeds have revived interest in the NEOM SC midfielder — a player they actually chased once before — though the field is crowded and it's very early stage. Lucas Perri: reported to be closing in on a Torino medical this weekend, but there's a genuine conflict between broadcast reports of a medical today and word from the club of a knock. We break down what we actually know.

Leeds Classic Coach Jacket: https://leedsunited.sjv.io/gRNeyO New Leeds Official Pre Match Tee: https://leedsunited.sjv.io/dyZZqM FCA Nominations: https://t.co/PGpuLFNVYd 🔔Thursday Leeds United wrap-up — a direct state-of-play update from the club's own beat reporter, real movement on the goalkeeper situation, a long-serving academy graduate's Leeds career appearing to end, and a midfield name resurfacing. Transfer state of play: Trafford remains close but not fully done, with Leeds sources feeling positive. Liam Delap is directly denied as a target, Carlos Espí interest is confirmed as genuine but no move made yet, and Shea Charles talks have hit a wall after Leeds' final offer went unaccepted. Lucas Perri: Torino have made formal enquiries as their own goalkeeper injury crisis bites, with Leeds' position unchanged — he stays until Trafford's deal is done. Sam Byram: contract renewal talks appear to have gone nowhere, with signals pointing towards his eight-year Leeds career coming to a quiet end. Yacine Titraoui: Leeds' long-running interest in the Algerian midfielder resurfaces as a cheaper alternative, with the Shea Charles pursuit stalling. If you enjoyed this one, make sure to subscribe and hit the bell so you never miss a video, leave a like, and let me know in the comments whether Leeds should go back in for Charles or pivot to Titraoui. #LUFC #LeedsUnited #PremierLeague #Trafford Learn more about your ad choices.

Trafford Details and Sell On, Perri Moves Fast, Brandt Route Clear, Sučić & Espi —Leeds United News
FCA Nominations: https://t.co/PGpuLFNVYd New Leeds United Home Shirt: https://leedsunited.sjv.io/gRNeyO New Leeds Official Pre Match Tee: https://leedsunited.sjv.io/dyZZqM 🔔 A busy one, with real movement on the goalkeeper situation, fresh names entering the picture, and a proper farewell from an eight-year servant. Mateo Joseph shared a positive update on his ACL recovery, posting gym photos and talking about "big changes" as he continues building back from injury. James Trafford: we break down the actual deal structure — £40m plus £5m in add-ons, and importantly a sell-on clause rather than a release clause, protecting Leeds' investment long-term. Lucas Perri: Di Marzio reports Torino are moving fast again now Leeds' business on Trafford is sorted — the blocker we told you about has cleared. Julian Brandt: Ajax's spending elsewhere and Real Betis dropping out have shifted the picture in Leeds' favour, though "unopposed" is still one outlet's characterisation rather than confirmed fact. Carlos Espí: a new striker name on Leeds' radar — young, physical, mobile forward from Levante — but with three other clubs currently better placed to pay his release clause. Jack Harrison addressed his Leeds exit and the loan spells that divided opinion among fans, in an honest farewell message on Instagram. Petar Sučić: genuine Leeds and Newcastle interest in the Inter Milan midfielder — but Inter have firmly shut the door on a sale.

Perri Agent Issue, Dorigo's Warning & Trafford Value Update, DCL set Back, Leeds Team News
New Leeds Official Pre Match Tee: https://leedsunited.sjv.io/dyZZqM 🔔Your Monday Leeds United news wrap-up — team news from the US tour, the latest twist in the goalkeeper saga, a title winner's verdict on this summer's business, and where the Trafford valuation actually stands. Team news: Dominic Calvert-Lewin missed the Wrexham friendly with a small pre-season setback and is building back up individually. Bijol and Bornauw were also left out as a precaution, both expected to be fine soon. Perri to Torino: the move looked close to done, but it's stalled — the hold-up is agent commission, not cold feet from either club, and it's pausing his medical. Tony Dorigo: the title winner says Leeds need quality over quantity this summer, but warns the relegation fight will be just as tough as last season no matter who comes in. James Trafford: a fresh £40m valuation figure is doing the rounds, and we look at how well that's actually corroborated across outlets.

Leeds United Transfer Talk Weekly | Trafford Talks, Brandt Offer, Djú, Demirović & Paixão
🔔 Your weekly Leeds United Transfer Talk wrap-up — five names, the full story on each, and a credibility check on every source so you know what's real and what's noise. James Trafford — the big one. Leeds are in direct, productive talks with Manchester City for the 23-year-old keeper, and are understood to lead the race ahead of Newcastle, Chelsea and Villa. Numbers not yet agreed, and Lucas Perri won't be cleared for Torino until this one's done. Fee talk (club record, release clauses, £27m vs £31m buy-back figures) remains unverified — we separate fact from speculation. Julian Brandt — a genuine one. The 30-year-old German is a free agent after leaving Dortmund, Leeds have an offer on the table and his father held talks at Thorp Arch. He hasn't decided, and the sticking point is European football. We also bin the Turkish "done deal soon" nonsense, which all traces to one low-grade source. Franculino Djú — the exciting one. 22-year-old Midtjylland striker, 55 goals in 107, available this summer but only for a Danish record fee. We dig into the Danish press: rejected Saudi bid, Galatasaray talks, and where Leeds actually sit in the scouting pack. Ermedin Demirović — credible interest, unlikely deal. Sky Germany has Leeds, Juve and Fener on the 28-year-old Stuttgart striker, with a genuine boardroom split in Germany — but the player wants to stay, and the word from the Leeds end is they'd want younger. We also fix a stat doing the rounds (it's 32 goals, not 43 — the 43 is goal involvements). Igor Paixão — the resurfacer. Marseille need sales and would listen from €30–35m, but the player wants to stay, Roma are the real interest, and Leeds are not in for him right now. We explain why this one could still come back late in the window.
