sport news Leeds: Jesse Marsch wants Luis Sinisterra to replace Raphinha and battles for ... trends now
Jesse Marsch's summer business is well underway - but the Leeds manager has plenty of work still to do to reshape his squad ahead of the new season.
It is set to be a big summer of change at Elland Road, and although they narrowly avoided relegation from the Premier League last season, there will still be a high turnover of players.
Leeds have already signed forward Brenden Aaronson for £21million and full back Rasmus Kristensen for £14m from Red Bull Salzburg, plus midfielder Marc Roca from Bayern Munich for an initial £10.4m, rising to £14.7m with bonuses.
Midfielder Darko Gyabi, 18, has also joined from Manchester City for £5m, while talismanic midfielder Kalvin Phillips has moved the other way in a massive £45m deal - which will help to finance other purchases in this transfer window.
Last season's top scorer Raphinha has also been heavily linked with a move away, with Chelsea and Barcelona battling for his signature.
