The whites are ready to head straight to the transfer window this summer, welcoming Sean Longstaff, Jaka Bijol, Lucas Peri and four others to avoid an immediate relegation.<\/p>\n<p>    But the task would be easier said than done, and Daniel Fark has already admitted that his front line is still lacking in Premier League quality following a friendly draw with Villarreal.<\/p>\n<section class=\"emaki-custom-block emaki-custom-pullquote\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<div class=\"emaki-custom pullquote\" id=\"custom_block_5\">\n<div class=\"custom_block-content pullquote\">\n<p>&#8220;We know we&#8217;re not ready for Premier League level on offense.

Things like Beto and Rodrigo Muniz are threatening to steal headlines, but at this stage there is unlikely to be a deal between two impressive forwards. Meanwhile, the Leeds and the 49ers also took an early approach to signing former Premier League wingers.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"leeds-approached-moussa-djenepo\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Leeds_approached_Mussa_Zinepo\"><\/span>\n                        <strong>Leeds approached Mussa Zinepo<\/strong><br \/>\n               <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As African Foot reported, Leeds approached Musazinnepo early this summer, attempting to sign a standard Liege Winger, earning around \u00a318,000 a week.<\/p>\n<p>But in the end, the approach failed, and the former Southampton man remained a standard Li\u00e8ge player. It would be interesting to see that change as white people become more desperate to intensify their attacks, but that could mean they have to compete with Saudi and Iranian clubs for Djenepo&#8217;s signatures.<\/p>\n<p>Djenepo certainly ticks the box for his Premier League experience, previously enjoying four years of spells at Southampton, and was impressed with the Europa League stage at Standard Riege in the past.<\/p>\n<p>But as things stand, the 27-year-old appears to be down as a missed target on Elland Road. Farke and the 49ers aim to transform Leeds&#8217; offense into one of the quality of the Premier League.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>They have since secured some reinforcements, but Leeds United reportedly took the approach to signing the offensive additions they scored in the Europa League earlier this summer.
