Leeds United faces a transfer conundrum as Stoke City ‘close in’ on defender move.
It’s expected the deal involving the Potters and the Belgian club will go through next week when pre-season begins, although a fee is already said to have been agreed, with Bocat having one year remaining on his current deal. Bocat is a 24-year-old left-back who has made 51 league appearances with his current side.
Leeds United might have little option but to sell Crysencio Summerville this summer, according to journalist Ben Jacobs. He told GiveMeSport: “He has never tried to force his way out of Leeds, but there’s always been an appreciation at the end of the season if Leeds were not up, that he’d be susceptible to a move, and part of that is just the fact that Leeds need to raise funds.
“This idea that it has to be £100 million is a little bit high, according to sources I speak to, because it doesn’t factor in the fact that Tyler Adams and Luis Sinisterra have moved to Bournemouth. It is going to be reflected on this next set of financial books, and therefore the number that Leeds would need to bring in is a little bit lower, but it’s still significant and Luis Sinisterra might get you somewhere close to half the number that they need.
