They have recently been successful in developing several young players and are looking to build a strong team for the future. Losing Alkar will be a blow to them. Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen are also keeping an eye on his development.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The player has been offered a professional contract by Leeds but has not yet signed. It remains to be seen how the situation will develop. The midfielder cannot officially sign with a German club until he turns 18, but Leeds hope to persuade him to sign a professional contract.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Leeds United close to reaching deal with midfielder<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Alkar_is_a_strong_candidate\"><\/span>Alkar is a strong candidate<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Alker can play as either an attacking midfielder or a central midfielder. He is a technically gifted midfielder with vision and flair in the game.

He would be a solid long-term investment for both clubs. The opportunity to join a club like Dortmund or Leverkusen could be very exciting for the young midfielder. It remains to be seen how the situation will develop.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He has been a key player for Leeds&#8217; Under-18s this season and has also earned England caps at youth level.
