Leeds United fans on Twitter have been responding to the latest social media post from football journalist and reporter Fabrizio Romano.
This comes after Romano shared a post on his official Twitter page revealing that the Yorkshire club are “in talks” with Dinamo Zagreb to sign centre-back Josko Gvardiol.
Romano said that Gvardiol’s current price tag is “around €20 million” (£17.8 million) and is “another important target” for Leeds after they recently announced the signings of Robin Koch and Rodrigo.
The journalist ended his tweet by revealing that Leeds are “still working” with Italian side Udinese to “find an agreement” over the potential signing of Rodrigo de Paul.
This post from Romano then gathered a lot of replies from Leeds fans, who were quick to share their thoughts on this latest transfer update.
Here’s a sample of Leeds fans responding to Romano’s post:

18-year-old Gvardiol, who is currently valued at £5.4 million, made his senior debut for Zagreb back in October 2019. Since then, the defender has gone on to make just 13 senior appearances for the Croatian side, in which he has scored once (per Transfermarkt).
Dreamland if I’m honest even if these signings that come of just to be linked with the calibre of player in its self if amazing considering what we have had to put up with for so long ??

With potentially two new centre backs, what I really want to know @PhilHay_ is whether I can stop being so scared whenever the opposition get a corner and start getting excited whenever we get one

Now that Romano has shared this news onto his Twitter page, this paved the way for lots of Leeds fans to have their say on the matter.
“Doing a Fulham” isn’t singing 4/5 recognised internal players to work under a genius manger is it

According to Romano, it appears that Leeds have their eye on making some more signings this summer before the start of their 2020/21 Premier League campaign. Having spent a fair amount of money already, the talk of more arrivals has at least one fan wondering whether QSI, which has long been linked with a possible takeover of Leeds, is involved as the Whites splash the cash.
It’ll be intriguing now to see how many incoming transfers the club manage to make before the start of the season.
