Leeds United are gearing up for their pre-season opener as new faces will take centre-stage.

After five new arrivals have entered the frame at Leeds, Daniel Farke is continuing to explore more options to strengthen their chances of staying in the Premier League.

With Sean Longstaff’s £15m move being announced, the 49ers can now move on to different targets, and Anton Stach is looking likely to be next in line.

Stuttgart won’t sign Stach, meaning Leeds now have a free run at the German this summer.

It’s opened the door for Farke to strengthen his midfield vigorously, and it appears he’s doing exactly that.

The 49ers can’t slow down at the moment, and after fans were getting impatient, the owners have answered their prayers.

Longstaff is the exact type of signing the Whites need for their Premier League survival, but now all they are missing is a presence in the middle of the park.

Stach can be the man that ticks this box, and with Hoffenheim looking to sign alternatives, it’s full steam ahead for Leeds, and Fabrizio Romano has dropped a bombshell on Leeds’ movements for the midfielder.

The journalist has announced his famous three words for Leeds signing Stach, as the 26-year-old will sign after a final fee in excess of £17.3m has been agreed, which was expected from the get-go.

It’s claimed that Stach is ‘looking forward’ to the Premier League challenge with a four-year deal signed.

More details behind Leeds’ £17.3m transfer for Stach

‘Here we go’ is the words Leeds fans have been wanting to hear for Stach, as in a matter of days the 49ers have revolutionised the Whites’ midfield.

The addition of the 6’4 stalwart will be huge in the grand scheme of things as it appears Leeds have found their own version of a Declan Rice or a Rodri.

£17m seems like a bargain, but according to Florian Plettenberg, there is more details behind the move, as ‘add-ons’ have been included after ‘intensive negotiations’.

This could potentially see the fee rise to around £20m, but the amount of add-ons included is unclear at this stage.

Leeds fans are ‘moved’ by Stach and now it’s become clear he will be Leeds’ sixth signing of the summer.
