Leeds are advancing in talks for James Trafford after Newcastle pulled out, with the goalkeeper keen to join and Manchester City pushing for a release clause. Leeds have also seen a final bid of more than £23m plus add-ons for Shea Charles rejected by Southampton.

Hull owner Acun Ilicali's transfer teaser suggests they are not close to signing Joe Gelhardt. Leeds have left the forward out of their US pre-season trip as they seek a sale.

Leeds are advancing in talks for James Trafford after Newcastle pulled out. The goalkeeper wants to join, with Manchester City pushing for a release clause in any deal.

Leeds are among clubs interested in Stuttgart striker Ermedin Demirović. Juventus and Fenerbahçe are also in the mix for the 28-year-old, who has a contract until 2028.

Leeds are close to agreeing Jack Harrison's exit to New England Revolution after leaving him out of the US trip, mirroring the cut-loss approach used with Max Wober.

Leeds like Harvey Elliott as a possible alternative to Julian Brandt. The Liverpool playmaker can play centrally or wide, but Premier League interest could complicate a deal.

Leeds have made a final £23m-plus-add-ons bid for Shea Charles. Southampton rejected it and also turned down Fulham's £24m offer, holding out for more than £30m.

Leeds will not benefit from West Ham's £55m plus £10m sale of Crysencio Summerville to Al-Hilal because his 2022 contract extension included no sell-on clause.

Leeds United are monitoring Norwich full-back Kellen Fisher, but Philippe Clement has made it clear he wants the 22-year-old kept and Norwich are not set to entertain talks.

Torino are tracking Leeds' push for James Trafford, believing his arrival could unlock a move for Lucas Perri, who has fallen out of favour at Elland Road.

Leeds have been linked with Franculino Dju, but the Yorkshire Post say they are not currently pursuing the Midtjylland striker despite reports of significant interest.
