Leeds United are moving fast in the summer market, and now they’re closing in on what could be their most exciting signing since Raphinha.
Reports say the Whites are chasing Oscar Gloukh, a talented playmaker from RB Salzburg, and fans are buzzing already.
Gloukh Could Light Up Elland Road
Gloukh is a 21-year-old attacking midfielder from Israel and he’s been making serious waves in Austria.
Playing for Salzburg, he’s got the flair, creativity, and goal threat that Leeds badly need in the number ten position.
Last season, Gloukh scored 10 goals and got 5 assists in just 26 league games. He also created 15 big chances and completed 3 dribbles per match, numbers that blow Brenden Aaronson’s stats out of the water.
Gloukh plays with style and confidence. He’s two-footed, sharp on the ball, and always looking for that killer pass.
Talent scout Jacek Kulig even said Gloukh has “exceptional vision” and is “destined for big things.” That’s a big shout but one that seems spot on.
Why This Signing Feels Like Raphinha Again
Fans still remember how Raphinha came in from Rennes for a modest fee and turned into a hero.
He saved Leeds with his goals, assists, and magical dribbles, keeping the club in the Premier League for two years running.
Gloukh might just follow that same path.
He’s young, creative, and hungry to prove himself. If Leeds can land him for the reported £21 million, it could be a bargain in a year or two just like Raphinha, who was later sold for £55m to Barcelona.
Gloukh already scored a stunner at the Club World Cup this year and has played well in big games. He’s not just potential, he’s delivering now.
A Massive Upgrade for Farke
With Daniel Farke looking to build a side strong enough to survive in the Premier League, Gloukh could be key.
Leeds need more than just effort, they need quality. And this lad brings both.
Compared to Aaronson, Gloukh has better numbers all across the board. More goals, more assists, better passing, more dribbles, he looks like a proper upgrade for the number ten spot.
If Leeds get this deal over the line, Gloukh could be the best signing at Elland Road since Raphinha.
Young, talented, and full of fire, he might just be the man to save Leeds from another drop.
