Leeds United are interested in a move for AZ Alkmaar attacker Jens Odgaard.
That is according to Danish outlet BT, who report Leeds and Werder Bremen are both ‘lurking’ with Bologna currently in pole position for his signature.
It is said that Bologna are currently the only side in talks with AZ over a potential move for the 24-year-old, who only moved to the Eredivisie last summer.
Odgaard, who is primarily a right-winger that can also play as a central attacker, scored nine goals in 29 league appearances during his debut campaign in the Netherlands.
He also netted a further three goals in other competitions including the Europa Conference League, while also providing six assists.
Leeds interested in Alkmaar’s Odgaard
At this stage it remains unclear as to whether Leeds will do any more business after completing the signings of Glen Kamara and Ilia Gruev yesterday.
However, this interest does show Leeds will be alert to any potential opportunities in the final few hours of the window, particularly if Luis Sinisterra moves on.
Leeds clearly are on the lookout for new attackers having come close to signing both Nadiem Amiri and Joseph Paintsil last week.
Another player who can play centrally in that front four would be huge for Daniel Farke’s squad, who has previously mentioned creativity as something he would like to add.
It certainly shapes up to be an interesting final day of the window, and if Leeds can add to what they have already got, it will have been a highly successful summer.
