Leeds United will be looking for another productive day in the transfer market as the deadline moves ever closer.
The Whites were linked with a whole host of potential signings on Tuesday (August 27) as they seek to add a minimum of two more players to their squad.
Manor Solomon made it signing number six of the summer as he joined on loan from Tottenham but he certainly isn’t expected to be the last of the incomings.
Full-back, central midfield and potentially even a number 10 are the positions in which Leeds are still targeting, and it looks as though they will be ambitious in who they try to bring in.
Max Aarons, Philip Billing, Gustavo Hamer, Ao Tanaka and Roland Sallai are all players who Leeds have on their radar, though it goes without saying not all of them will end up at Elland Road.
Maddison and Romano react to Manor Solomon deal
Since Crysencio Summerville and Georginio Rutter’s exits, Leeds have been trying to add some more X-Factor to Daniel Farke‘s options at the top end of the pitch.
And in the signings of Largie Ramazani and Solomon, they have certainly been able to do it.

Ramazani is expected to be the replacement for Summerville, while Leeds have described Solomon as a late market opportunity they have taken advantage of.
Solomon posted a message to Leeds supporters on Instagram after the announcement of his signing expressing how happy he is to be here for the season.
James Maddison and transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, who was one of the first to break the news of Leeds’ interest, were among those to respond.
He said: “Delighted to be joining @LeedsUnited for the season. I’m ready to get started and looking forward to seeing you all on Saturday at Elland Road. #MOT.”
Solomon spoke to Archie Gray ahead of Leeds move
Including Joe Rodon signing both on loan and permanently, Leeds and Spurs have conducted five pieces of transfer business with one another in the last two summers.
Archie Gray’s move to North London from Leeds was comfortably the most high profile one, and after joining in July, enjoyed a full pre-season with Solomon.
As such, speaking in his post-signing video, Solomon revealed how he spoke to Gray ahead of his decision to make the move.
He said: “Yeah, I spoke with Archie a bit and he told me some great things about the club. I spoke with some other people, the assistant coach at Tottenham who also told me some great stuff about Leeds.
“I also saw DJ and he also told me some good things about the club so yeah, all of the opinions I got about the club is that it is a great club and I am excited to get started.”
