Leeds United are about to enter the final 24 hours of their 2026 summer transfer window - and it could be a busy one. The Whites remain in the market for reinforcements across a few positions, namely in attacking areas where so far only Harry Wilson has arrived.
Quality at left-wing has been a priority all summer, with interest in the likes of Julian Brandt, Igor Paixao and more recently Mykhailo Mudryk. Leeds could also do with added depth at striker following Joel Piroe’s exit, while a potential hamstring injury for Joe Rodon could force a defensive move.
On the outgoing front, Willy Gnonto feels the most likely exit with Fiorentina in talks over a loan move but Leeds are unlikely to sanction anything unless a new winger arrives. With that in mind, the YEP has rounded up the latest on every story ahead of deadline day.

20. Nico Elvedi
Having sanctioned Bornauw's exit, Leeds agreed a deal worth £8.5m in total for Borussia Monchengladbach's Nico Elvedi. The Swiss international signed a three-year deal and has looked steady so far.
21. Ladislav Krejci
The Athletic named Krejci as someone who was 'admired' at Elland Road right at the start of the summer. Leeds went elsewhere, however, with Muharemovic signed. | Getty Images
22. Shea Charles
Leeds saw multiple bids for Charles rejected and the YEP reported last month that no further bids would be made. Their final offer remained on the table but Fulham reached Southampton's £30m price-tag and got a deal done earlier this month.
23. Julian Brandt
The YEP first reported on interest in Brandt earlier this summer and the attacking midfielder's dad travelled to Thorp Arch for talks. But it always felt like the 30-year-old was exploring other options and he joined Ajax on a free recently. | Getty Images
24. Harry Wilson
Wilson arrived as a free agent earlier this summer to become Leeds' first signing of the window. He penned a four-year deal and has been regularly involved so far this season.
