He previously competed in the Championship.
Leeds United have already attempted to sign a “outstanding” new player for Daniel Farke this summer.
Leeds’ remarkable championship form continues.
The Whites have built themselves in a strong position in the Championship after some excellent results in 2024, and they hope to return to the Premier League at the earliest opportunity.
In fact, Farke’s team recently tied a club record of nine consecutive league victories, which began on New Year’s Day.
Despite failing to win ten consecutive games, Leeds are now in second place for automatic promotion and might potentially top the table with a two-goal victory over Millwall on Sunday.
Things are looking bright heading into the run-in, and with promotion now a real possibility, it appears that 49ers Enterprises is identifying transfer targets.
One player of interest looks to be former Queens Park Rangers winger Bright Osayi-Samuel, and after rumors of a move to Elland Road surfaced earlier this year, a new update has emerged.
Leeds make an offer for Bright Osayi Samuel
According to sources in Turkey, supplied by Sport Witness, Leeds have already made an offer of around £7 million to recruit Osayi-Samuel, who is now at Fenerbahce.
The Turkish giants, however, have ‘requested that the negotiations’ be postponed ‘until the summer’ since they do not want to commit to a decision before the completion of the campaign.
According to The Athletic’s Nick Miller, Osayi-Samuel has developed into “one of the best right-backs in Turkey” and has now made 128 appearances for his current club, more than any of his previous clubs combined.
The 26-year-old has been at the top of his game in Turkey, with a career-high Transfermarkt valuation since joining Fener, thus Osayi-Samuel may be considered as the right-back who could allow Archie Gray to return to his preferred midfield spot in the long run. He had received high accolades at QPR, especially from former manager Mark Warburton.
“Bright came off because we need to look after our young players.” I have never been booed at 6-0 before, I must say. With these demands, you can’t play 21st, 26th, 29th, 1st, 4th, or 5th without being injured or fatigued. You cannot afford to lose those boys for four to six weeks’ worth of injury. Today he was fantastic and deserved the plaudits.
A deal appears to be worth keeping an eye on, and maybe, by the summer, Leeds will be able to provide Osayi-Samuel premier league football.
