Andrea Radrizzani signing off high-level talks as Leeds one step from £20m+ transfer – report

Leeds United are now one step away from announcing the signing of Watford attacker Ismaila Sarr, according to Tutto Calciomercato 24.

The Italian outlet has reported on its website that Andrea Radrizzani has been signing off high-level negotiations all summer, and is set to do it again.

It is shared that Leeds will pay £21.1million with this potentially their last move of the entire window with three weeks to go until it slams shut.

Sarr made all of the headlines this week after scoring from inside his own half as Watford left West Brom with a 1-1 draw in the Championship.

The Senegalese international may have two relegations to his name now, but he has been the odd shining light for Watford over three years that has brought more pain than success.

Leeds are now established in the Premier League in their third consecutive season, leaving the 24-year-old with a big decision over his future this month.

Sign off.

This potential move has us dreaming of what our attacking line-up could look like, although we still aren’t 100% convinced it could actually be happening.

Reports coming out of Italy and France appear to have guaranteed that this will happen, yet there has been radio silence from England regarding any movement.

Sarr would be an excellent addition, and alongside Luis Sinisterra would make Raphinha a thing of the past after his £50m+ move to Barcelona this summer.

Add Dan James and Jack Harrison and Jesse Marsch will be laughing, but it could mean that no new striker arrives.

The Whites may be happy with Patrick Bamford and Joe Gelhardt, with James, Rodrigo and now Sarr all capable of filling in if needed – and if not, that may be revisited in January.

Either way, this is certainly one to watch and we can’t imagine too many complaints coming from Elland Road if this one really was one step away and on the verge of completion.

Carabao Cup second round draw: Leeds United learn fate, ball numbers and draw time

Sport

Leeds United will learn their opponents for the second round of the Carabao Cup as the Premier League teams enter the competition. Having been given a bye in the first round, the top flight sides not involved in European action will make their bow in the second round of the league cup.

So far this week we have seen a host of Championship sides knocked out with surprising results, meaning there will be some lower league sides hoping to be drawn against one of the Premier League teams in this evening’s draw. Last year Leeds safely navigated their way past Crewe at this stage of the competition before eventually going out to Arsenal away from home.

Stay with us as we bring you all the details you need followed by live updates of the draw itself as we discover who the Whites will play.

Leeds United under no financial pressure to complete sale, transfer would be easy to do – report

Leeds United are not under any immediate pressure to sell Mateusz Kilich this summer despite interest, according to The Athletic.

Polish media outlet Meczyki reported on 4 August that the Polish international was keen to leave Elland Road “at all costs” to try and find regular football ahead of the 2022 World Cup in November.

The 32-year-old wants to be on the plane to Qatar and to do so could pursue a return to FC Utrecht to put himself in the eyes of manager Czesław Michniewicz.

Phil Hay from The Athletic claims that a return to Utrecht would be an easy deal to complete for both Leeds United and Klich but the Whites are not under any financial pressure to see him leave.

He came off the bench in the 2-1 win at home to Wolves for new signing Marc Roca but substitute appearances are not enough for him to be satisfied.

Let him go

Jesse Marsch and Victor Orta have to ask themselves whether Klich is going to be a part of their long-term future for the football club and there is surely only one answer given that he is 32 years of age.

This might be his last season where he can compete in the Premier League, even as a substitute and the new recruits of Roca and Tyler Adams have removed any potential starting place for the Pole.

If Utrecht want to come and make an offer the Leeds would be mad not to listen to what they have to say and Klich’s desire to leave Elland Road should be a further nudge to do that.

He may have two years left on his contract but he knows exactly what he wants before the transfer window closes and after he helped the Whites win promotion and then stay in the top flight, they should listen to his wishes.

Archie Gray can provide cover in midfield if necessary as he keeps improving every single day and if the worst were to happen in terms of injuries, Lewis Bate can be recalled from Oxford United.

In other Leeds United news, Stephen Warnock and Dermot Gallagher clashed live on Sky Sports as they discussed a major flashpoint in the opening day victory.

Leeds weather forecast for Wednesday as temperatures steadily rise

Wednesday will a day of uninterrupted sunshine with no rain expected at all.

The sun should rise fairly early in Leeds and temperatures will begin to climb in two degree increments by the hour. The city should see one its warmest days though the heat will fall just a degree short of being classified as extreme.

Maximum temperatures will be realised by 3pm and continue till 6pm. With fairly high humidity, that afternoon period should be a trial run for coping with the heatwave which is scheduled to start in Leeds on Thursday.

Like most of Yorkshire, the Met Office says, Leeds will have early mist which should clear quickly: “Any early mist or fog clearing quickly to leave another warm and dry day with unbroken sunshine for many. Once again coastal areas feeling somewhat cooler with an onshore breeze. Maximum temperature 30 ?C.”

A health warming has been issued and the heat is expected to continue rising and peak during the weekend. Leeds will have an Amber warning starting from Thursday, so the temperatures on Wednesday could help preparations for another hot spell.
