After the scouts completed their “Due Diligence,” Leeds United reportedly began speaking this summer to sign Daniel Fark’s Champions League-level midfielder.
49ers keeps pressing after signing Bijol
Ready to return to the Premier League and end the trends for promoted teams, and head straight back to the championship, Leeds has already welcomed both Lukas Nmeka and Zhaka Bijold this summer. The latter costs around £19 million and stands out as something to watch, especially after swapping Udinese for Elland Road in a big money move.
After putting the pen on paper, the central defender told Leeds’ official website. “This is a big day for me, and for my family, I’m happy to be here. It’s probably one of the biggest careers I’ve ever had, but I’m ready for it.
“I work for it, so that’s why I’m here because it’s a big challenge for everyone. It’s a big challenge for me, for the club, and we’re preparing it together. I think the club and I are ready for the Premier League.
“I can promise to give it everything. I’ll just give it all of the training, prepare myself for the first game of the season and go from there.”

But while not in their glory, the 49ers have since turned their eyes to more reinforcements like Habib Diara, who will hand over a midfield boost. And the midfield appears to be the ongoing focus at Elland Road. “Due Diligence” has been completed and is open to sign a Champions League star this summer.
Leeds is holding a talk to sign Douglas Lewis
According to former Premier League scout Mick Brown, Leeds has started speaking to sign Juventus’ Douglas Lewis this summer.
Brown told football insiders after Juventus insisted he wanted to sell the Brazilian. “So, Leeds may be interested after talking to his agents, but they need to know what they’re getting.
“If someone wants to get on the ball and help with the progress, he can do that. If they’re fighting and willing to fight, they’ll see elsewhere. Their scouts would have done their due diligence on him.
Former Manchester United Scout Lewis unified Lewis as “talented” before revealing Leeds’ speech to secure his signature in the coming months. As the signature progresses, bringing the former villa star back to the Premier League is a statement from the 49ers, and will immediately deny the need to sign another midfield reinforcement.
