Leeds United are currently a £17 million midfielder in the race, with Red Bull “knowing everything,” revealed expert Graeme Bailey.
Leeds is looking at the midfielder after missing Diala
After being promoted from the championship alongside Sunderland, it’s no surprise that Leeds has identified similar targets to the Black Cat. They will be extremely disappointed that they lost to the two midfielders’ race playoff final winners.
Khabib Diara was on Whites’ shortlist before the 21-year-old moved to the Stadium of Light, but now it appears that he has missed Noah Sadiki’s contract.
So Daniel Fark’s side was forced to move on to a variety of options in the middle of the park, with Bailey dropping more promising updates on Hoffenheim’s midfielder Anton Schtuck’s pursuit.
Transfer experts told Leeds United News that Whites’ Red Bull connection should give them Premier League rivals in the German signed race, given the involvement of minority owners in the Bundesliga.

Bailey said:He’s on the list he was told to me. Hoffenheim is not eager to go. Leeds isn’t the only thing I’m interested in from what I said. He’s a very good player and clearly through Red Bull, Leeds is well-versed in him.
“They’re ahead of many other Premier League teams when it comes to talent based in Germany. So it’s not a surprise. That’s not a big surprise. If there’s something good, Leeds knows everything about it.”
“Underrated” Stach may be better to sign than Sadiki
Leeds is unhappy with Sunderland being able to pip them into Sadiki’s signatures, but there are indications that Staluch could be a better signature than the Belgian-born midfielder.
First, the German International 2nd innings have more experience in the Top League, with 122 Bundesliga appearances, but Sadiki has not been proven outside of Belgium.
Not only that, the “underrepresented” Hoffenheimster is defensively good, surpassing the new Sunderland signature across many important metrics over the past year.
statistics | Anton Structure | Noah Sadiki |
Intercept | 1.65 (93rd percentile) | 1.08 (55th percentile) |
block | 1.60 (85th percentile) | 1.34 (64th percentile) |
clearance | 3.65 (99th percentile) | 1.34 (38th percentile) |
The air won | 1.83 (88th percentile) | 0.30 (8th percentile) |
Stach should be available for a £17 million price that seems like a reasonable price given Hoffenheim’s level of performance, and Leeds’ missed Sadiki and Diarra could be a blessing in disguise.
