Leeds United squad depth assessed as £86m transfer window adds quality but vulnerable area remains

A look at the depth in each key position for Leeds United following the closure of the transfer window.

Leeds United’s squad is set in stone for at least the next four months following the closure of the transfer window on Tuesday. Daniel Farke welcomed two new faces through the door on deadline day, with loan pair Melvin Bard and Jean-Matteo Bahoya joining a handful of previous summer arrivals.

The Whites spent around £86million in total and added some real quality, with a feeling three positions in the starting-XI have been potentially improved upon. Elland Road chiefs also ensured there was plenty of depth in areas previously lacking, like left-back or left-wing for example.

Striker remains the obvious vulnerable area, with Lukas Nmecha the only out-and-out cover for Dominic Calvert-Lewin while Noah Okafor can do a job if needed. And with that in mind, the YEP has assessed Leeds’ squad depth in every position - this is how it will look until January.
