Leeds United will have to get promoted back to the Premier League before any of the surprising transfer links emerging have any sort of substance to them, but links to Tammy Abraham have cropped up.
Daniel Farke and Leeds are 10 games away from promotion back to the Premier League, currently top of the table coming into this final run of fixtures, in which they will be hoping to keep their noses in front of the chasing pack.
With that, the 49ers will be confident of delivering an ambitious summer spending spree if the club are heading back to the top flight.

If Leeds do get promoted, there is no denying that they will need a starting 11 overhaul to stand any chance of staying in the top flight, including adding more firepower up front.
One of the names surprisingly being linked with a move to Elland Road is former Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham, currently on loan at AC Milan from fellow Serie A side Roma.
The 27-year-old has eight goals and four assists in all competitions this season, having missed a large portion of 23/24 with a cruciate ligament injury while at Roma.

The 6ft4in striker could be on the move in the summer as his AC Milan loan future remains up in the air, and Fabrizio Romano has shared the latest on the striker.
A return to the Premier League could be in store for the Englishman:
“It’s a possibility [Abraham returning to England], but all depends on Milan now,” Romano told GiveMeSport. “They must decide whether they want to keep him from Roma or let him go back to the club, and it will be up to the new director they’re about to appoint soon.”
Abraham is contracted until 2026 in the Italian capital with Roma, having joined in 2021 for a reported £34million fee from Chelsea.
Abraham would be a massive coup for Leeds, if he’s up to speed again
This discussion only becomes relevant if Leeds are promoted back to the Premier League, and the next run of games are crucial for that.
However, it doesn’t stop the club from continuing to sound out potential candidates for a transfer to get ahead of the game when the summer rolls around.
Abraham, if fully fit, would be a massive signing for any club in the Premier League that needs a striker with good experience.
Leeds are going to be crying out for a nine no matter the league they’re in next season, and he’d be a superb addition.
