Joe Rothwell was one of Leeds United's quietly influential players during their promotion-winning campaign last season. He played a significant part in securing their return to the Premier League, but he did not get to experience the rewards of that success firsthand. Joe Rothwell impressed at Leeds Rothwell was brought to Leeds on a loan deal last season and was initially not considered a central figure in their promotion push. However, he proved his worth at Elland Road with strong performances.

Leeds have made a good start to their Premier League return, with four points in their opening three matches. The 5-0 defeat to Arsenal was a blow, but a victory over Everton and draw against Newcastle has elevated the confidence levels at Elland Road after a positive summer transfer window. Among those to join Leeds in the summer was defensive midfielder Anton Stach, who arrived from Bundesliga side TSG Hoffenheim.

Let the one who said there was a scandal explain. Do you think that if he had any problems, he would have been in the squad? After his injury, he played one of his strongest matches for the national team. Understand me as you wish. I said what I said. The important thing is that every profession is difficult, but especially ours is public. Despite the efforts made, you are still the most guilty of something.

As per Football Insider, Pete O'Rourke has revealed that Aston Villa are open to parting ways with Emiliano Buendia before the summer transfer window closes on Monday, which could allow Leeds to make their move. Obviously, there's a long-standing association between Daniel Farke and Buendia from their time at Norwich. Leeds are in the market for a number 10, and Buendia is one they are talking to ahead of Monday's deadline. It could happen.

According to Alan Nixon (via LeedsUnited.News), West Ham have set their sights on a late summer move for Charlie Cresswell, who left Leeds last summer to join Ligue 1 side Toulouse. The 23-year-old, who was a regular for England during their U21 Euros success in June, has attracted interest from Liverpool in recent weeks, but he could now be set for a move to the London Stadium.

Leeds have signed Leicester City defender James Justin in a deal worth 10m. The full-back moves to Elland Road on a four-year contract and becomes the club's 10th summer signing. Leeds will pay Leicester 8m, with 2m in add-ons, for the 27-year-old. Justin is not expected to be available for Tuesday's Carabao Cup second-round tie at Sheffield Wednesday, with Leeds hosting Newcastle in their next Premier League game on Saturday.

It's bad news. He will be out at least until the international break.

Leeds United are lining up a move for a playmaker in the final days of the summer transfer window. While the Whites have several options in the midfield at the moment, they need a creative presence, someone who can keep possession of the ball and create chances. Their current midfield options include Anton Stach, Ao Tanaka and Etham Ampadu, all of whom started their first Premier League match of the season against Everton, a 1-0 win at Elland Road.

The Switzerland striker has joined the Premier League club on a four-year deal. The 25-year-old becomes Leeds' ninth summer signing since winning the Championship to secure their return to the top flight. Okafor's arrival means Premier League clubs have now spent more than the previous record in a single transfer window, the 2.36bn total in the summer of 2023.
