‘One of the best players in the Championship’ has agreed to join Leeds in important transfer.
Leeds United are set for a chaotic end to the summer transfer window as they look to bolster Daniel Farke’s ranks.
Last season’s talisman Crysencio Summerville has left for West Ham United whilst Georginio Rutter and Archie Gray have also departed for the top flight.
Largie Ramazani has completed a switch to Leeds in the last week and is expected to replace Summerville on the left.
Manor Solomon is on the verge of joining from Tottenham and now it’s just come to light that they’re closing in on the signing of a Championship playmaker.
Gustavo Hamer has agreed to join Leeds
According to Dutch outlet Transfer Watch, Sheffield United’s star player Gustavo Hamer has agreed to join Leeds United.
Hamer has agreed personal terms with The Whites and now the two Yorkshire clubs are negotiating a transfer fee.
Leeds have already had a £13m bid knocked back for the 27-year-old but are set to return with a second offer.
There is an expectation that this deal will be completed before deadline day on Friday.
Gustavo Hamer profile
Hamer, who has been labelled ‘one of the best players in the Championship’ per the Coventry Telegraph, can operate as a number eight or as a traditional number 10.
The former Netherlands youth international enjoyed a productive debut season with The Blades on a personal level last term, registering 10 goal involvements in the Premier League.
He’s already off the mark in the Championship this season, netting twice whilst laying on an assist.
If Leeds were to sign Hamer this week, it’d send out a real statement of intent to their promotion rivals.
