    Good Morning. It's Wednesday 15th January, and here are the latest headlines from Elland Road

    Concrete interest in Gnonto from Saudi League

    Reports of "concrete interest" in Leeds winger Wilfried Gnonto from the Saudi Pro League are intensifying.

    While no specific clubs have been identified, media sources strongly suggest the 21yo is on the radar of multiple teams in the rapidly developing league. This raises questions about Leeds willingness to part ways with the Italian international.

    Gnonto's form this season hasn't been spectacular, and with a surplus of wingers already at Elland Road, the club might be tempted to cash in on his potential.

    A potential transfer fee of let's say £25m would give Leeds much-needed funds to strengthen in other areas of the pitch, ahead of what promises to be a nerve wracking secondhalf of the season!

    Leeds rubbish D'avilla reports

    Leeds United have rubbished reports linking them with a £3.3 million bid for UD Leiria's 21yo defensive midfielder Dje D'avilla.

    Contrary to reports in West Yorkshire, Sport TV journalist Sebastiao Sousa Pinto insists the Whites have not just tabled a bid, but put together a compensation package for the highly rated 21yo. D'Avilla currently applies his trade in the Portuguese second tier, and has attracted interest from a host of clubs.

    He is described as highly skilful, a strong passer, and capable of driving forward with the ball. The biggest obstacle Leeds would face is gaining a UK work permit, given the strict rules that apply to the UK. This makes any move during the January transfer window unlikely.

    Whites eyeing versatile Pilgrim

    Leeds scouts were in attendance to watch Plymouth’s 1-0 win over Brentford on the weekend, prompting speculation among Leeds fans on social media.

    Whilst former Leeds target Morgan Whittaker grabbed the headlines with a wonder striker from outside of the area (his last contribution for the Pilgrims before his £12m move to Burnley), the Whites have turned their attention to promising defender Bali Mumba, who briefly played under Farke at Norwich.

    The 23yo can play anywhere in the back-line, prompting potential interest from the Leeds gaffer. He has made 24 starts for Plymouth, and has been credited with one assist. His ''Whoscored' rating of 6.43 puts his 16th in their rankings.

    Afternoon all. Gnonto is far too young to be throwing his career away by going to Saudi Arabia.

    Nonsense think of the money it's all that matters these days. He wanted to move last season so why not rake in some more money for the 49ers balance sheet.
