‘He’s outstanding’: Leeds United told signing ‘fantastic’ £30m ace guarantees them the Championship title

While Sheffield United is honing their blades with two Championship hitmen, Sunderland relied on Regis Le Bris’ extensive understanding of French football to recruit none other than Enzo Le Fee, a £20 million loanee from Roma who dominated the French top division just months ago. One of the division’s most dreaded forwards, Ben Brereton Diaz, joins Bramall Lane on loan from Southampton.

Tom Cannon, who recently scored nine goals in 22 starts for The Potters, will join the Chilean international, who was born in Stoke. Regarding Leeds United, the conversations have focused more on who hasn’t reached Elland Road than on who has.A few weeks before Abdokudir Khusanov finally moved to Manchester City for £33 million, Leeds reportedly made an offer of £16.5 million for him.
