Journalist, Dean Jones has told GiveMeSport that Leeds United target, Noa Lang ‘will be available’ in the coming months.
Lang was part of the Netherlands World Cup squad that travelled to Qatar. He made one appearance across the tournament, making a substitute cameo against Argentina in the quarter-finals.
The 23-year-old currently plays his football with Belgian side Club Brugge, after leaving Ajax in the summer of 2021. Lang had spent the previous season on loan with the Juplier Pro League side. He tends to operate as a left-winger, but has played on the right and as a second striker in the past.
Here’s what Jones when addressing the futures of the Dutch national team, ‘The other players to look out for in this team that will be available in the coming months are Stefan De Vrij (Tottenham interest), Noa Lang (Leeds and West Ham interest) and Jeremie Frimpong (Man United interest).’
TIF’s view on Jones’ comments…
The attacker was valued at £22 million earlier on in the year, but it remains to be seen as to whether this price will rise for the upcoming January transfer window.
We believe that Leeds should keep an eye on Lang, as since playing for Club Brugge, he’s been a source of creativity and goals.
Across three seasons in the Belgian League, the 23-year old, who has been hailed as a ‘phenomenon’, has 45 goal contributions from 67 matches, a really strong return.
Should he make the move to Elland Road, Lang could be another avenue for creating and scoring goals, something the Whites desperately need this season. Jesse Marsch’s side sits in 15th place in the league, but are only two points off the relegation zone.
This Premier League season, Leeds have very much relied on Rodrigo to be their source of goals. He’s netted nine league goals, which is more than a third of their tally so far.
The next transfer window is a great opportunity to improve their squad, they’ll need to bring in all the quality they can in order to avoid the drop.
