‘Talks in progress’… Leeds are now discussing selling their ‘very fast’ player
The likes of Tyler Adams, Rodrigo and Luis Sinisterra all left Elland Road in the summer, and now, with the January window open, there could soon be another big name departure.
It feels strange to say this after such a fantastic season last time around, but Leeds probably won’t miss Gnonto that much if he does go.
The Italian was fantastic in the Premier League last term, but he seems to have gone backwards over the past few months.
He’s not starting for Leeds on a weekly basis at this point, and with just one goal and one assist to his name in the league so far this season, he’s not exactly making a massive impact.
Of course, at the age of just 20 and with a very promising Premier League season under his belt, this is still a player who holds a lot of value in the transfer market, and if Leeds are to sell their ‘very fast’ attacker, they need to hold out for a solid fee from Everton.
As for Gnonto at Everton, it will be very interesting to see how this one works out if it goes ahead.
Gnonto, as we all know, is a very diminutive player, and Sean Dyche is known for his love of big physical players rather than small, tricky technicians.
This is certainly a situation to keep an eye on in the coming days and weeks.
According to The Sun, Leeds are aware of the fact Bournemouth are ready to part company with Moore in the January transfer window.
As well as the Whites, the likes of Cardiff, Ipswich, West Brom, Sunderland and Middlesbrough are said to be eyeing the 31-year-old as well.
Cardiff, Leeds’ next Championship opponents, are apparently ‘pushing hardest’ for Moore, but Leeds are nonetheless on alert regarding his situation.
Leeds United target Kieffer Moore has earned praise from Jurgen Klinsmann
Moore is an experienced striker with considerable experience at a high level. The 6ft 5in powerhouse has made 343 club appearances during his career and has also won 39 caps for Wales.
Of his club outings, 34 have come in the Premier League, and 155 have come in the Championship, as per Transfermarkt. Needless to say, he knows his way around the second tier.
Moore has earned plaudits from the likes of Jurgen Klinsmann, who deemed him a game-changer in the 2022 World Cup encounter with the United States.
