Leeds United could be about to land another exciting player before the transfer window closes.
Reports say the club are in talks to sign Vinicius Tobias, a right-back from Shakhtar Donetsk.
The Whites have already made seven new signings this summer, but manager Daniel Farke is still keen to strengthen the squad, especially with the Premier League season starting soon against Everton.
More Deals Before Deadline?
The transfer window shuts on 1st September, and Leeds still need more players in key areas.
The club has been linked with Tobias, a talented Brazilian defender, who once played for Real Madrid’s B team.
Right now, Leeds have not made a formal bid, but talks are happening.
Shakhtar want around £17.5million, and they also want a sell-on clause added to any deal.
That means they would get a cut if Leeds sell him in the future.
Tobias could be the eighth summer signing, joining a fresh-looking Leeds team who are aiming to stay up this season.
Leeds fans will be hoping for a few more names to come through the door before the deadline.
What About the Right-Back Spot?
Right now, Jayden Bogle is the main man in that position.
He had a strong season with 6 goals and 4 assists in 45 games.
But bringing in someone like Tobias would increase competition and give Farke more options.
Another right-back, Sam Byram, might also find it tough if Tobias signs.
The Brazilian is quick, good going forward, and brings a touch of class from his time at Madrid.
It would be a smart move to strengthen defence while still adding attacking power.
Message From Leeds Star
Meanwhile, after the recent signings, Leeds United stars have started to react.
One key player sent a message on social media saying the team is “hungry for more” and ready for the new season.
It shows the mood inside the dressing room is positive, and the players believe they can do something big this year.
With a week to go before the season starts, and the transfer window closing soon after, it looks like Leeds United are not done yet.
A move for Tobias could be a big statement.
Fans will be watching closely as the club pushes for a strong finish to the window.
