Leeds United are actively looking to bolster their squad through Premier League loans as the summer transfer window progresses, having already signed Joe Rothwell from Bournemouth and reportedly closing in on Sheffield United's Jayden Bogle for £5 million. Manager Daniel Farke has confirmed that former captain Liam Cooper, whose contract expired, and Cody Drameh are not part of the current first-team setup, indicating a shift in the squad's dynamics. Farke also expressed satisfaction with the team's pre-season preparations following a 3-0 victory against Harrogate Town, emphasizing the importance of pacing their form for the upcoming season. Despite some early recruitment, concerns remain among fans about the depth of the squad, particularly in the full-back positions. Leeds has shown interest in Chelsea's Alfie Gilchrist, among other Premier League youngsters, as they seek to strengthen their ranks. Farke's comments suggest that a significant recruitment drive is needed in the coming weeks to address existing gaps in the roster.
