They lost their opening five games and never moved out of the bottom of the table, becoming only the second club in history to lose all 19 of their opponents in a single season.<\/p>\n<p>Selling Gomez at a reduced price was always the most likely outcome as the economic realities of Championship football become more acute.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s disappointing for Leeds to miss out, but the fact that they were even in the conversation speaks for itself.<\/p>\n<p>Gomez&#8217;s profile &#8211; aggressive, tactically disciplined, comfortable in possession and a Brazilian international &#8211; would have represented a serious statement of intent.<\/p>\n<p>    That Leeds were prepared to put a concrete offer on the table for such a talented player suggests they have both the appetite and the budget for meaningful business this summer.<\/p>\n<p>The question is, where will they go next?<\/p>\n<p>The club&#8217;s wider plans are still taking shape, but the ambition is clear.<\/p>\n<div class=\"display-card  article article-card small  no-badge  active-content                              \" data-include-community-rating=\"false\" id=\"leeds-lining-up-transfer-move-axel-disasi-chelsea-sale-news\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<p>                        <img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"440\" height=\"248\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Leeds United manager Daniel Farke thanks fans after the match\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/leeds-united-manager-daniel-farke-acknowledges-fans-after-the-match.JPG?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/leeds-united-manager-daniel-farke-acknowledges-fans-after-the-match.JPG?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                    <span data-field=\"label\" class=\"article-card-label\"><label>related<\/label><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"w-display-card-content regular article-block\">\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Leeds_prepare_to_sign_80000-a-week_star_Chelsea_also_set_to_sell\"><\/span>\n<p>\t\t\tLeeds prepare to sign \u00a380,000-a-week star, Chelsea also set to sell<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">Los Blancos are keen to sign an &#8220;incredible&#8221; player.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leeds United are a Premier League club and here to stay.
