The rumours are gathering pace at Elland Road as the new season fast approaches. Today’s Leeds transfer roundup includes a price set for a star midfielder, a deal close to completion for one of the club’s youngsters and an astounding interest in a former World Cup winner.
Leeds want £30m for Phillips
According to the Sun, Leeds want £30m for midfielder Kalvin Phillips. Aston Villa are interested, but this price is more double what they would have wanted to part with for the tenacious Englishman.
Deal for Clarke
The Sun is also reporting that Tottenham will soon sign Jack Clarke in a deal worth £8.5m plus add-ons. The 18-year-old winger had a breakthrough campaign last time around, scoring two goals in 25 appearances for the Yorkshire based outfit.
Buffon on radar
In a shocking update, Gianluigi Buffon could move to Leeds according to Corriere Della Sera. The former Juventus shot-stopper left PSG earlier this summer and Leeds are one of three clubs who have been linked. The others are Porto and Fluminense.
