Leeds United are gearing up for a busy summer, with several new players already being linked to Elland Road. The club needs to replace outgoing players and strengthen key positions, including right-back, number 10, and center-back.

Among the latest ten players linked with Leeds is Swiss 22-year-old Natan Girma from Reggiana, who has been on their radar for months. Eric Smith from St. Pauli is another target, with Leeds competing against West Brom for the Swedish center-back. Versatile Fulham player Bobby Decordova-Reid is also in their sights, particularly as his contract nears expiration.

Karamoko Dembele, formerly of Celtic and now with Brest, impressed on loan at Blackpool last season and is another Leeds target. Additionally, Leeds are eyeing Japan star Ao Tanaka from Dusseldorf, Stuttgart’s DR Congo winger Silas, and Chelsea’s Alfie Gilchrist for a potential loan move.

West Ham’s Ben Johnson, Norwich’s USA striker Josh Sargent, and Nottingham Forest’s Ateef Konate round out the list of players Leeds are considering to bolster their squad for the upcoming season.

Leeds United have shown interest in signing Chelsea right-back Alfie Gilchrist on loan this summer, joining Preston and Blackburn in the pursuit. After missing out on promotion, Leeds faces another summer of extensive transfer activity, needing to rebuild their squad once more. Journalist Ben Jacobs recently revealed that Leeds is one of three clubs closely monitoring Chelsea’s 20-year-old right-back Alfie Gilchrist. Despite breaking into Chelsea’s senior team this season, Gilchrist is expected to go out on loan this summer to gain more first-team experience.
