Throughout the January transfer window, Leeds has been looking to bolster their defense, which has led to several players being linked to moves to Elland Road.

However, Daniel Farke of the Yorkshire team is eager to bolster before the deadline of February 1st, and the team is prepared to launch a serious campaign for Godfrey.

Many Premier League teams, notably Sheffield United, have expressed interest in Godfrey as well, but the Blades and the Merseyside club have not yet reached any sort of agreement.

Nottingham Forest and Luton Town have also been mentioned as potential destinations for the centre-back.

Having worked with Godfrey at Norwich City, Farke is well acquainted with him. In an effort to resume playing more frequently, Godfrey, the Everton player, might be eager for a reunion.

After the Norfolk team was relegated to the Championship in the summer of 2020, he moved from Carrow Road to the Toffees.

Despite his four seasons at Goodison Park, Dyche has not included him much in the Everton lineup.
