Leeds United are getting ready to make some big moves in the January transfer window. Reports say the club want to sign a new winger and an attacking midfielder to help the fight for Premier League safety.
Boss Daniel Farke knows his team need more options, and the board are ready to back him.
Why January Is So Important
Leeds came up to the Premier League this season, and already they know it will be a hard fight. Promoted teams often go back down fast, and history shows how tough it is.
In the last few years, big clubs like Leicester, Southampton, Burnley, and Sheffield United all dropped back into the Championship. Leeds do not want that to happen again.
Right now, the Whites sit in mid-table with a few wins and some draws. It looks steady, but fans know things can change quick. The winter window will be key to keep momentum and add more strength.
New Players Leeds Want
The plan is clear: a winger to bring pace and width, and a number 10 to bring creativity in attack.
Leeds already signed Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Sean Longstaff in the summer, and both have helped with experience. But the team still need more firepower going forward.

Calvert-Lewin loves service into the box, so a fast winger could be a game-changer.
An attacking midfielder will also give Farke more ideas, helping to unlock defences and create chances. Leeds fans have seen too many games where the team fight hard but lack that final touch.
There are also whispers about young Nico O’Reilly, a 20-year-old talent from Manchester City.
He is a creative midfielder and has been called “graceful with the ball.” Chelsea are also interested, so it will not be easy, but Leeds being in the mix shows ambition.
Farke’s Vision
Daniel Farke has been clear about his football. He wants balance, structure, and attacking play.
To do this in the Premier League, he needs the right players in the right positions. That is why January feels so important.
The club are not just looking for short-term fixes. They want players who can help now but also stay part of the project for the next few years.
A strong January can set the tone for survival this season and stability in the future.
What It Means For The Fans
Leeds fans have seen plenty of ups and downs in recent years. This time, the hope is that the board act early and get the deals done.
If the club bring in two or three smart signings, survival looks more than possible. With Elland Road behind them, fresh energy in attack, and Farke’s plan, Leeds could even push towards mid-table.
For now, the message is clear: Leeds United know the danger, and they are ready to fight it head-on.
January will be massive, and fans will be watching closely to see who comes through the door.
