Oliver Skipp deal, new Archie Gray role – How Leeds United can line up after transfer window

Leeds United is gearing up for a busy summer transfer window, with several players linked to moves away from Elland Road. Manager Daniel Farke will need to act quickly to fill the gaps in his squad, with Tottenham’s Oliver Skipp and Basel winger Liam Millar emerging as top targets.

Free agent Callum O’Hare is another option for Farke, who is looking to strengthen his team for another promotion push.One possible lineup for Leeds United next season could see Skipp and youngster Archie Gray forming a central midfield partnership, with Gray pushing forward and Skipp playing an anchor role. Millar could operate on the left wing, with Dan James on the right, and O’Hare as the No 10. This formation would allow for a central striker, potentially someone like Sammie Szmodics, who has been linked to the club.

Another option for Farke could be a 4-4-2 formation, with Skipp and Gray in midfield and Mateo Joseph or Joel Piroe up front. This would mean one less forward to sign, but would still allow for a strong attacking lineup.Farke could also opt for a more fluid 4-3-3 system, with Gray linking midfield and attack, and a forward line capable of dropping in and out of key positions. This would create a role for O’Hare, with Ethan Ampadu or Glen Kamara also an option in midfield.

Leeds United fans are eagerly awaiting the start of the new season, and with the club’s transfer business heating up, there is plenty to be excited about. With the right signings, Leeds could be a force to be reckoned with in the Championship next season.In other news, Jack Harrison has been speaking about his exit from Leeds United, and his instant return to Everton on loan. Harrison has left the door open for a potential return to Elland Road in the future.

Leeds United has also been handed a major fitness boost ahead of pre-season, with key player Pascal Struijk returning from injury. Struijk’s return will be a welcome sight for Farke, who is looking to build a strong squad for the upcoming season.Overall, it’s shaping up to be an exciting summer for Leeds United fans, with plenty of transfer activity and a strong squad taking shape. With the right signings and a bit of luck, Leeds could be back in the Premier League before long.
