Leeds United are yet to dip into the transfer market this summer but the Whites have already been linked with a host of players. The club don’t have complete financial freedom this summer but they’ll be doing what they can to add to Daniel Farke’s squad in an attempt to go one better and win promotion next season.
They may have some difficult decisions to make when it comes to interest in their own players, too, with several key names being linked away from Elland Road already. The next few months promise to be interesting if nothing else, though, with building a squad capable of finding a way out of the second tier the clear goal.
Here, we take a look at how Leeds could line-up next season if the club managed to bag those players they are currently being linked with.
1. GK: Illan Meslier

Chelsea are said to be willing to listen to loan offers and according to reports, the Whites are keen to take the defender for the season.
