One of Leeds United’s headline signings from last summer is garnering interest from a number of clubs. During their first window with complete ownership, 49ers Enterprises signed nine new players, and they had different degrees of success. Ethan Ampadu and Joe Rodon were unquestionably the best of the lot, and it’s no wonder Leeds have now spent £10 million to get the latter on a permanent basis. Sam Byram, Glen Kamara, Ilia Gruev, and Joel Piroe also had solid seasons, albeit they aren’t as indispensable in the squad as Ampadu and Rodon. Jaidon Anthony, Djed Spence, and Karl Darlow were…
