Graham Smyth feels Max Wober might yet leave Leeds United before the August 30 transfer deadline. While Daniel Farke anticipates the Austrian defender playing a role at Elland Road this season [Beren Cross], he is still linked with a move elsewhere, with Borussia Monchengladbach keen in re-signing him [Rheinische Post]. The 26-year-old was an unused substitute in Leeds’ first Championship encounter, but Smyth wants Farke to start him against Middlesbrough in the EFL Cup on Wednesday, August 14. On Monday (12 August), he told The Square Ball podcast: “You could [give Wober a game].” It’s a wise move. But he…

Leeds United are one of the clubs associated with Liverpool midfielder Bobby Clark. Liverpool have reportedly turned down a new bid for Bobby Clark. Clark moved to Liverpool from Newcastle United three years ago for £1.5 million and has made remarkable progress on Merseyside. Last season, he appeared in 11 senior games, making his Premier League debut, coming off the bench in the Reds’ Carabao Cup final victory against Chelsea at Wembley Stadium, and scoring his first senior goal in a 6-1 Europa League victory over Sparta Prague. The 19-year-old is yet to play in pre-season after suffering a back…
Nottingham Forest are still looking for a striker before the transfer season ends, as the Reds work to finalise their recruitment plans. Chris Wood, who scored 14 Premier League goals last season, and Taiwo Awoniyi are the Reds’ major players right now. However, the reasoning behind signing another one is rather straightforward. Wood will be 33 years old this season, and he cannot continue indefinitely, since the New Zealand international is in his final year of contract. Then there’s Awoniyi, who has scored some key goals since joining Forest from Union Berlin in the summer of 2022. However, his injury…
Nottingham Forest are attempting to finalize their team this summer, but it is not just incoming transfers that are dominating the headlines. Forest are well aware that in order to continue signing players, they will need to cut their cloth and unload players. With PSR looming around the corner of every Premier League club, particularly those outside the big six, Forest understands that every cent counts these days. Forest has a handful of players who are considered surplus. Joe Worrall, Emmanuel Dennis, and Josh Bowler are already training with the first team and have been told they can play. However,…
We reported last week on allegations from Argentina that Ramón Sosa has refused to train with CA Talleres after they publicly declared they had halted negotiations with Nottingham Forest. The dynamic winger was not in the team to face Barracas Central on Friday and has refused to play in the crucial game against River Plate next week. Nottingham Forest verbally agreed to a deal before reportedly modifying everything, which did not please the Argentine team. TyC Sports reports that the 24-year-old could still leave for Nottingham Forest or another team this summer. They say that if a transfer hasn’t already…
Leeds United striker Mateo Joseph was unable to hit the back of the net in his debut league start for the club against Portsmouth, but this still felt like a preview of what is to come from the striker. 949 days. Mateo Joseph had to wait this long to earn his first league debut for Leeds United. Saturday afternoon was bound to be noteworthy in some manner. So it proved. There was no goal – Joseph had his hands on his head after missing that second-half chance – but this bizarre 3-3 draw with Portsmouth felt like a foreshadowing of…
Leeds United had a terrible afternoon on Saturday, failing to overcome Portsmouth despite dominating the game from start to finish and scoring three times. Pascal Struijk opened the scoring from the penalty spot after Dan James was injured, but Portsmouth replied twice before halftime to make the score 2-1 to the newly promoted side. Wilfried Gnonto promptly made it 2-2 after the half, but Portsmouth responded with an injury-time penalty before Brenden Aaronson came off the bench to make it 3-3 in the 95th minute. Aaronson, on the other hand, went from zero to hero to zero as the USA…
Liverpool fans could only dream of having a striker like Victor Osimhen on their team. This is not a case of Liverpool’s inability to attract a player of the Napoli star’s caliber. They can do it 10 times over and bring in many of Europe’s finest stars, if they choose. To the frustration of Liverpool fans, the powers that be at Anfield function in a very different manner, which irritates those who represent the club. While Chelsea is on another spending spree, Manchester City is looking for two Premier League players to replace Julian Alvarez, and even West Ham United…
Leeds United agreed to sell Crysencio Summerville to West Ham for a reported £25 million up front, plus add-ons. Leeds still have a lot of work to do in the transfer market before the season closes on August 30, including finding a means to adequately replace two key outgoings. Crysencio Summerville followed Archie Gray to the Premier League, signing a long-term agreement with West Ham. West Ham’s Crysencio Summerville transfer details have been released. It was revealed earlier in August that West Ham had finalized the transfer of Summerville from Leeds, which was concerning due to a release clause in…
Nottingham Forest have recently returned from Greece, where they met Olympiacos, the UEFA Conference League champions, in their final preseason test. The Reds won 4-3 over the Greek club, which is also owned by Evangelos Marinakis, and the game served as a valuable learning experience. This preseason has been significantly less turbulent than the previous two since Forest’s ascent to the Premier League. In a refreshing change of strategy in the transfer market, only six players have been signed thus far, with quality taking precedence over number. More players will be recruited before the transfer market ends, but Forest has…
