Report: Leeds now close to agreeing £21m Arnaud Kalimuendo deal
Leeds United are now close to agreeing a deal with Paris Saint-Germain for Arnaud Kalimuendo, with the Whites ready to pay £21 million for the striker, .
Leeds have made a raft of signings, but Jesse Marsch is yet to add an out-and-out striker in this window. It does appear to be imperative that the Whites land another goalscorer.
And it has appeared for some time that Kalimuendo is the name at the top of the wishlist.
Reports from France on Thursday claimed that Leeds had opened talks with PSG over a £21 million move for the 20-year-old, who scored 13 goals out on loan with Lens last season.
And it seems that a move has already moved significantly closer.
, Leeds are now close to reaching an agreement with the Ligue 1 champions. The Whites are confident that Kalimuendo will end up at Elland Road this summer.
Leeds closing in on signing Arnaud Kalimuendo
It would be a potential coup for Leeds to bring Kalimuendo to the Premier League. He did well out on loan last season. And there is interest from other clubs, with Newcastle also reportedly bidding for the 20-year-old.
Leeds’ director of football Victor Orta has come in for criticism during his time at the club. The Whites have certainly made some real mistakes in the transfer market.
But he has done superbly this summer. Obviously, the jury will remain out until the Premier League season is properly up and running.
But there is no question that Leeds have dealt with a number of issues in a swift manner this summer. And it seems that landing a new striker may be an objective Leeds are also able to cross off the list in the near future.
