Leeds United are anticipated to be busy in the final week and a half of the transfer market, and one player who has been linked with a move to Elland Road has received plaudits for his performance on Sunday. With Georginio Rutter and Crysencio Summerville ready to leave Leeds for Premier League clubs, Daniel Farke has stated that he wants four new signings, including replacements for both players. A new full-back to cover Junior Firpo or Jayden Bogle is also needed, with Sam Byram now the only other option in the squad as a recognised full-back, though Pascal Struijk and…

Ramon Sosa has officially signed terms with Nottingham Forest, ending the summer’s longest – and most dull – story. The 24-year-old Paraguayan trickery has landed in Nottingham to adapt to the Premier League after shining in the last Copa America. Sosa has signed for a cost of around £11 million from Argentine top-flight club Talleres. He normally operates on the flanks, but he can also work through the middle, which gives Forest options. With the changes in yesterday’s 1-1 draw with Bournemouth having little impact, Sosa will undoubtedly add something to the squad. What Nuno Espirito Santo stated about Ramon…
Leeds United fans will be thrilled if Technical Director Gretar Steinsson can sign Sunderland winger Jack Clarke to replace Crysencio Summerville. According to the Sunday Mirror on August 18, Southampton and Lazio are also interested in signing the 23-year-old. With Crysencio Summerville departing, Daniel Farke will seek a game changer in the last third, which explains why the Sunderland player is on the club’s radar. Jack Clarke would be an excellent Crysencio Summerville replacement for Leeds United. Signing Clarke appears to be a no-brainer given his experience with the club, having graduated from their academy, which might allow for a…
Everton’s Jarrad Branthwaite has been one of the most impressive performances in the Premier League over the last year. Sky Bet has cut its odds on Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite joining Liverpool before the transfer window closes at the end of this month. Manchester United has already made two bids for the defender this summer, which the Blues have rejected. Branthwaite was one of the bright spots of Everton’s tumultuous 2023/24 season, starting 35 of 38 Premier League games after returning from a loan spell at Dutch side PSV Eindhoven. The 22-year-old was called up to England’s provisional squad for…
Nottingham Forest drew 1-1 with Bournemouth yesterday, starting the 2024/25 Premier League season in a dismal fashion. Chris Wood closed off a strong first half for Forest with a goal after 23 minutes, but Antoine Semenyo earned a point for the Cherries four minutes later. However, the Reds had plenty of encouraging moments, and the club will have a lot to think about when they face Southampton next weekend. On Match of the Day, the conversation shifted to the performance of a man who will be aiming to impose his authority on the team this season – and how well…
Daniel Farke wants to bring in more reinforcements before the end of the August summer window. Leeds United recognizes the need for reinforcements in a variety of areas ahead of the August deadline. After losing three key first-team players this summer, Daniel Farke and his club will need to work quickly to find replacements to help them challenge at the top of the Championship again this season. Joe Rodon, Jayden Bogle, Alex Cairs, and Joe Rothwell have already arrived, but the Whites continue to struggle up front. Joe Piroe and teenage attacker Mateo Joseph have been underwhelming thus far this…
Leeds United will make a “big” profit after selling several of its key players in big-money transactions over the summer. That is according to finance expert Stefan Borson, who told Football Insider exclusively that the Championship club should be good in terms of profit and sustainability (PSR) despite being close to their permissible deficits last season. Leeds have already sold Archie Gray to Tottenham and Crysencio Summerville to West Ham this summer, earning the club approximately £55 million. Georginio Rutter appears to be on his way to Brighton, according to Football Insider, which announced on August 15 that the forward…
Liverpool began their Premier League campaign with a 2-0 victory over Ipswich Town on Saturday afternoon. On paper, travelling to a recently promoted side seemed to be an ideal first game, but it was a possible stumbling block for Arne Slot. Anything less than a win in the Dutchman’s first game would have brought unwanted attention to his team. Fortunately for Slot, the Reds’ second-half performance secured a crucial three points. It was Liverpool fans’ first genuine chance to see ‘Slot-ball’, and while the first half was nerve-racking, they will have been pleased with what they witnessed after the interval.…
Nottingham Forest began their Premier League campaign with a 1-1 draw at home to Bournemouth, on a day when the Reds lost Danilo to serious injury. Forest had the better of the first half, but Bournemouth dominated the second 45 minutes, and their equaliser was definitely merited. The Reds will now move on to Southampton next week, hoping to win all three points for the first time this season. There were some positives to the performance, and despite what some Forest fans may believe, it’s not all bad news. Nuno Espirito Santo’s job is to establish more consistency in his…
Keith Wyness, former Everton manager, has stated that it is “vital” for Nottingham Forest to remain in the city centre while negotiations over a stadium deal continue. Speaking on the latest episode of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, the 66-year-old, who was CEO at Goodison Park from 2004 to 2009 and now runs a football consultancy advising elite clubs, said cities should be “frightened” of an American-style “franchise model” taking hold in the English game. The BBC reported last month (8 July) that Nottingham City Council has agreed in principle to sell the area around the City Ground to Nottingham…
