Leeds United are reportedly keen on securing the services of Wolves left-back Hugo Bueno this summer.
Dr Rajpal Brar, an injury expert, has assessed the Spaniard’s fitness record over the course of the 2024/25 season as he could be on the move this summer.
The 22-year-old spent last season out on loan at Feyenoord, where he was a first-team regular.

Bueno injury record last season is alarming
The Whites are expected to take a closer look at the left-back’s muscle injuries before making a decision to sign him, according to Dr Brar.
Leeds are considering a bid for Bueno as they’re looking to replace Junior Firpo, who left after his contract expired.

Speaking exclusively to MOT Leeds News, Dr Brar, a specialist in Physical Therapy and a Sports Scientist, said about Bueno: “The club may take a closer look at his recent history of muscle injuries, particularly if they’re recurrent or related injuries.
“Having three different injury setbacks is alarming and that is something Leeds will be factoring in.
“*So, these things certainly will need to be taken into consideration before any final decision is made.*“

Leeds United should make a move for Bueno
Bueno would be an excellent signing for Leeds United due to his versatility, Premier League experience, and potential for growth.
The Spaniard has demonstrated his ability to compete at high levels, including in the Champions League, where he’s contributed assists and shown offensive flair.
His 21 Premier League appearances highlight his readiness for top-flight football, offering the Whites a reliable replacement for Firpo.
Bueno’s technical skill, honed since joining Wolves’ academy in 2019, combined with his work rate and ability to play as a wing-back, aligns with what Daniel Farke wants from his defenders.
His desire for regular playing time ensures he’d be motivated to make an immediate impact, strengthening the Elland Road outfit’s defence while adding attacking depth.
