Could Leeds United be about to sign Ligue 1 striker in £6m deal? – 10 goals in 27 games

Leeds United fans are hoping the club can bring in one more big-name signing, and although it seems unlikely, they have been linked with several exciting attacking options in the past 24 hours or so, despite fans acknowledging that they generally need cover at the back – and in midfield.

One player who Leeds United fans are desperate to see sign for the club is Amiens SC striker Moussa Konaté – who would reportedly be worth around the £6m mark – who has been linked with a move to West Yorkshire by French Newspaper L’Equipe.

The striker scored 10 goals in 27 games for the top-flight side last season and if he was to move to the Championship, he could be a deadly attacking option for Leeds United.

Despite the fact that Leeds United signed Patrick Bamford from Middlesbrough, the club are still being linked with new attacking options and with Marcelo Bielsa being renowned for his attack-minded teams, another forward wouldn’t be an unrealistic signing by the West-Yorkshire club.

Konaté has played across Europe thus far, featuring in Serie A for Genoa, in Switzerland for FC Sion and his current employers Amiens SC are in the top division of French football, showing that he clearly possesses talent and would be a valuable addition to the Championship side.

If you ask whether a deal could be struck between the French club and Leeds United – it seems unlikely.

If you ask whether a deal between the two clubs is possible, then yes, it always is in football and especially with Leeds United gearing up for a promotion challenge, Marcelo Bielsa won’t want to miss out on a bargain if he sees one.
