Brenden has unfinished business at Elland Road

Brenden has unfinished business at ER

USA International Brenden Aaronson has committed his future (short term at-least) to Leeds Utd, after answering Daniel Farke’s SOS, expressing that he has unfinished business at Elland Road. The 23 year old attacking midfielder/winger was one of the first of many to flee the club last Summer following relegation to the Championship, and found temporary solice in the form of Bundesliga outfit Union Berlin.

He had a truly terrible start to his loan spell, but came good towards the end, and was instrumental in helping keep them keep their top flight status. The Philadelphia native has a lot to prove to the Elland Road faithful, but they forgave Gnonto after going on strike, so why not Aaronson. Will Daniel Farke try the same tact with fellow former Red Bull players Rasmus Kristensen and Max Wober?

Aaronson could have left on a free loan again

The Athletic reporter Phil Hay has insisted that Brenden Aaronson rejected the opportunity to use the loan clause in his contract to activate another spell away from Elland Road next season, prompting speculation why Real Betis have such a strong hold over Marc Roca!

It is widely accepted that only two Leeds players have the rights to extend their loans, for so long as Leeds remain away from the Premier League, and one of those has to be Jack Harrison.

Leeds winning race for monster defender

Leeds Utd are plotting the £2m capture of Republic of Ireland U21 International Anselmo García MacNulty. The monster centre-back applies his trade in the Eredivisie for PEC Zwolle, and was a top target for Leicester City before winning promotion back to the Premier League. He came through the youth ranks at Real Betis before ending up in the Netherlands, after a spell at Wolfsburg.

He has been described as an incredibly technical player, but also dominates in the air too with his 6’5″ frame. He has also caught the eye of Southampton and Club Brugge, but it is understood that Leeds are currently leading the race for the 21y ear old.
