Leeds United launched their Premier League campaign with a 1-0 victory over Everton at Eland Road.
Lukas Nmecha scored the only goal of the match to give Daniel Farke all three points.
The newly promoted party has signed a new signing this summer, but their transfer business is not over.
Farke is looking to add an offensive addition to his team to add depth to his options as Leeds prepares to avoid relegation this season.

Whites are interested in AC Milan attacker Noah Okafor as Fark aims to add players to his team.
Another player who has long been linked to Leeds United is former midfielder Calvin Phillips.
Since leaving White, the midfielder has endured difficult times in Manchester City, West Ham United and Ipswichtown.
Leeds United were interested in the early parts of the Transfer Window, but that stance is reportedly changed now.
According to the Daily Mail, Leeds came out of the race this summer to sign Phillips.
There are multiple reasons behind this decision from the newly promoted club.
First, Phillips has faced fitness issues in the recent past, and the club has become skeptical of it. Secondly, his wage demands will be difficult to match Leeds.

But there’s another reason. Leeds has already signed Anton Stach and Sean Longstaff in midfield positions and is confident in the business they have done.
They feel they don’t need Phillips anymore, as Stach and Longstaff can do the exact same job.
Fans would have wanted to see Phillips play for the team again, but the club decided that it wasn’t the best decision for the team.
The British midfielder, currently struggling to revive his career, was once the heartbeat of the Leeds United team.
