Leeds United’s transfer stance revealed as AFC Bournemouth star comments on Elland Road move

AFC Bournemouth star Arnaut Danjuma is not wanted by Leeds United, the Yorkshire Evening Post has revealed.

AFC Bournemouth’s flying Dutchman enjoyed a thoroughly impressive 2020/21 campaign, starring on the wing.

Across all competitions, the 24-year-old managed 17 goals and eight assists in 38 games. His form has seen him heavily linked with a move away, with West Ham and Southampton previously mentioned as suitors.

However, Danjuma has recently spoken about the possibility of joining Leeds United. He stated a move to Elland Road would be “a nice step”, adding that he is not keen on another season of Championship football.

“Leeds is a bigger institution than Bournemouth, has a very nice history and they play Premier League,” he said.

“I don’t think I can play another Championship season, I’ve outgrown the competition a bit. Leeds United would be a nice step.”

Amid the winger’s words, the Yorkshire Evening Post has now revealed Leeds’ stance.

They report that Marcelo Bielsa’s side are not interested in signing the former Club Brugge man.

Following his words, the Nigeran-born winger moved to reassure AFC Bournemouth fans. He stated he was only trying to be “respectful” about the club, adding that he did not mean to undermine the Cherries.

Having said that he isn’t keen on playing Championship football again, it will be interesting to see how Danjuma’s transfer situation pans out in the coming weeks.
