The Elland Road club has been linked with a move for the Udinese attacking midfielder who has a market value of £27m (as per Transfermarkt).

Nice easy one to start with, who scored Leeds' first goal of the PL season?

The journalist also added that the Argentine is ‘ready to move to Leeds United’ and that it is now ‘up to the two clubs’ to make it happen. Here is how a sample of the club’s faithful has responded on the social media platform.

Are you confident Leeds will get a deal done for Rodrigo de Paul?

Yes

Yes

No

It’s clear from the above responses that many of these Leeds fans would love to see the player join their club. Many continued to make their feelings known in the replies.

During the 2019/20 campaign, the Udinese number 10 made 34 appearances in the Italian top-flight, during which he contributed seven goals and six assists (as per WhoScored).

His average performance rating was an impressive 7.25/10 making him the club’s highest-rated performer.

If the Whites are able to agree a transfer fee with Udinese, they will be getting a player renowned for his ability to play key passes, through balls, dribble and shoot from distance among other things (via WhoScored).
