Sassuolo defender Tarik Muharemovic is currently on his way to Leeds United to finalise his move to Elland Road.
Tuttomercatoweb report information from Sport Mediaset today. They state that Muharemovic is heading to England to finalise his transfer.
Travelling for Leeds medical
According to the newspaper, there are new developments around Tarik Muharemovic and his potential move to Leeds.
The Sassuolo defender is set to join Leeds and is currently on his way to England. He is already scheduled to undergo a medical with Daniel Farke’s team after his arrival.
The Premier League side have already reached an agreement with Sassuolo in the last few days, offering €40m to sign Muharemovic outright. Half of that money will go directly to Juventus, who hold a 50% share of any future sale on the 23-year-old.
Sport Witness have covered Leeds’ developing move for him over the last few days. The latest update, yesterday, explained that an announcement on the signing was imminent. Now Sport Mediaset report that Muharemovic is on his way to England for a medical to finalise the transfer.
Leeds targeting centre-backs
Whether he is the only centre-back arrival at Leeds this summer, remains to be seen. They need a signing in that position after selling Pascal Struijk to Brighton.
But there is also doubt over the futures of Sebastiaan Bornauw and Maximilian Wöber. If both depart as expected, more arrivals will be needed. Muharemovic may be the first, but not the last.
Indeed, Sport Witness covered a report on Wednesday explaining that Leeds were targeting a deal for Oumar Solet as well.
For now, the focus is on the Sassuolo defender. He is travelling to England for a medical and his move to Leeds United now appears to be in the final stages.
