defense options

Leeds United are reportedly one of five clubs interested in signing Sunderland defender Trai Hume this summer, as Daniel Farke seeks to bolster his right-back options. With Connor Roberts’ loan spell at Elland Road ending and Sam Byram’s injury history posing a concern, Leeds are in need of at least one, possibly two, new right-backs. Trai Hume, known for his incredible stamina, work ethic, and reliability, started all 46 league games for Sunderland last season and is capable of playing on either side of the defense or in the middle. However, Leeds face competition from Aston Villa, Napoli, Leicester, and Bournemouth for Hume’s signature.
