Story

Almeria winger Largie Ramazani arrived in England on Wednesday evening to undergo a medical examination with Leeds United. The 23-year-old player, who made his first team debut in a Europa League match against Astana in 2019, left his previous club after declining a contract offer the following summer. Since then, he has made 127 appearances for Almeria, netting 21 goals. Ramazani was previously linked with a move to Everton earlier this summer but is now poised to join Leeds as they aim to bolster their squad for a promotion push. His arrival comes at a crucial time for the club, especially following the departure of Crysencio Summerville to West Ham, which has left a gap in their attacking options. In their search for reinforcements, Leeds had explored several alternatives, including Norwich City's Jonathan Rowe, who is set to join Marseille, and Freiburg's Roland Sallai, along with Burnley's Manuel Benson. Additionally, Rangers' Rabbie Matondo was considered, but he appears to be on track for a move to Blackburn Rovers. Leeds is keen to secure a striker to replace Georginio Rutter, who was sold to Brighton. The club's fans have expressed growing impatience regarding the lack of new signings, making Ramazani's potential acquisition a significant development in their transfer strategy.
