Leeds United may not be having the best of seasons on the field, fighting relegation after their impressive return to top flight football last season. Thankfully for the Leeds faithful, the January transfer window is giving some excitement.
Marcelo Bielsa and Leeds are reportedly keen on Marseille’s Boubacar Kamara. The defensive-midfielder is out of contract in the summer so clubs are hoping to take advantage of getting him at a cut price this window.
Will Kalvin Phillips sign a new contract at Leeds?
Yes
No
The news that was reported in the Daily Mail and was conveyed to Leeds supporters via Leeds Xtra on Twitter saw supporters absolutely buzzing at the prospect.
What did the Leeds fans have to say?
“Yes please, hope this one has legs. Could fit in for Kalvin immediately, so we can use Forshaw as an 8 again.” @OHelleland
“This would be a great signing, can’t see it happening though.” @leemhutchinson
“Unbelievable Jeff.” @cheeno64
“Now we’re talking.” @lufctheoo
“Signings like these are what we need, players from the Championship will only get us back into the Championship.” @scottlarsen_pi
“*Opens YoutTube* He’s the next Busquets!!! Sign him up @LUFC #lufc #mot.” @LewyPearce
The move would be perfect for Leeds you feel, currently they only have Kalvin Phillips good enough to play as the six. Kamara also has previous with Bielsa…
The Frenchman was in the youth setup at Marseille when Bielsa was there himself, so could that be a deciding factor when Kamara is looking at where to go next?
