With the Championship season concluded, Leeds United is gearing up for their Premier League return. Coach Daniel Farke's squad requires significant reinforcements, particularly in defense. After missing out on Eric Dier, Leeds are targeting other players, notably Leonardo Balerdi from Marseille. Balerdi, a 26-year-old experienced Argentine defender, has caught the attention of Leeds scouts. Marseille is reportedly open to negotiations around a £20 million fee. Apart from Balerdi, Leeds is also considering signing Manor Solomon and Sean Longstaff during the summer transfer window.
At 26, Balerdi has already had a lot of experience playing at the top-level of European football, and experience is something that Leeds need to add to their squad for the Premier League.
Leeds missed out on signing Eric Dier, who will leave Bayern Munich in the summer after he agreed a pre-contract with AS Monaco.
Leeds have sent scouts to observe Balerdi's performances in recent weeks. The Argentine centre-back is believed to be one of the club's top targets for the position.
Leeds can start to make preparations for their return to the Premier League. Daniel Farke's squad will need significant additions to compete effectively in the top flight.
