"As per TEAMtalk (via Leeds United News), Leeds have set their sights on signing Bitshiabu, who looks set to be allowed to leave Bundesliga giants RB Leipzig when the transfer window opens next week. Bitshiabu has struggled for prominence this season, with only five appearances made across all competitions. RB Leipzig do not count on him for the immediate future, which is why Leeds could have a way in."
"Leeds do not have a lot of left-footed defenders, with only Pascal Struijk and Gabriel Gudmundsson as options regularly used by Farke. It makes a lot of sense to bring in competition for the second half of the season, and that is exactly what Bitshiabu would provide. It remains to be seen whether Leeds can strike a deal with RB Leipzig for Bitshiabu."
Leeds plan to make January signings to strengthen the squad for the second half of the Premier League season, with defence as a priority. Daniel Farke's switch to a 3-5-2 emphasizes an additional centre-back, creating demand for improved depth. RB Leipzig defender El Chadaille Bitshiabu is being targeted after limited game time this season and appears likely to be allowed to leave. Bitshiabu has made only five appearances across competitions, and RB Leipzig do not count on him for the immediate future. A loan move is considered the most realistic option to provide left-footed competition.
