Leeds United will be pleased with the business done this summer, but more additions are expected. Lukas Nmecha, Jaka Bijol and Sebastiaan Bornauw have been confirmed so far.

The attack and defence have seen some new additions, and now the midfield could also see a huge boost.
According to Tuttomercatoweb, Douglas Luiz could be on Leeds’ radar. The Whites have already made their assessment of the player, but have not made a move yet. Reports in Italy claim the Brazilian would be keen on a move back to the Premier League.
Juventus are happy to sell the midfielder this summer, after a bad start to life in Italy. Luiz’s huge wages and injury problems make him a prime candidate to be offloaded, with the Serie A side open to selling him on a cut-price deal.
