According to HITC, Leeds United, Chelsea, Brentford, and West Ham have all expressed interest in Archie Brown, an in-demand Gent left-back.
On March 4, the news site reported that a number of Premier League clubs, including Leeds, had expressed interest in him, with the possibility of him returning to England in the summer.
The 21-year-old was previously with Derby County before joining Lausanne-Sport in 2021.
Brown might not be coming to Leeds United
The Whites may have challenges in signing Brown due to competition from wealthier clubs, namely Chelsea, who are also scouting the English defender.
Chelsea’s interest adds substantial weight to the rivalry for Brown’s signature, as the club has the financial means and Premier League reputation to make an appealing offer.
Furthermore, West Ham’s participation heightens the competition, indicating considerable interest from several Premier League clubs.
Despite their Championship promotion hopes, Leeds may struggle to match the cash offers and reputation that top-flight clubs like as Chelsea and, maybe, West Ham can give.
Furthermore, if Brown is looking for instant top-tier football, the draw of playing in the Premier League with established clubs may sway his decision away from the Whites, complicating their pursuit of the young defender.
Daniel Farke has made Leeds United play attractive football.
Leeds may not need another left-back in the summer, since Junior Firpo is performing well and has put his injury concerns behind him.
