“Good bye Legend” Personal terms agreed: Leeds now close to selling “machine” who earns more than Summerville and……..

Leeds United is close to selling Glen Kamara to Rennes for £8.5m, according to Fabrizio Romano. The Finnish midfielder joined Leeds last summer for £5.5m, but his high wages and lack of goals last season have made him surplus to requirements. Kamara’s departure will allow Leeds to sign a replacement and free up wages for other key players.

Kamara’s wage was £22.5k-per-week, higher than crucial Leeds players like Wilfried Gnonto and Crysencio Summerville. Gnonto and Summerville are both on lower wages, £20k-per-week and £15k-per-week respectively, despite their significant contributions to the team last season. Summerville had an impressive 29 goal contributions in the Championship last season and will likely be seeking a major move this summer.

Losing Kamara will not be a significant blow to Leeds, as they have already signed Joe Rothwell on loan from Bournemouth to fill the gap in midfield. Leeds will also make a profit on Kamara’s sale, which can be used to sign new recruits ahead of the forthcoming season.

The departure of Kamara and the arrival of Rothwell signal a new-look starting XI for Leeds United in the upcoming Championship season. Archie Gray has already left the club, and rumors suggest that more players may follow. However, Leeds fans will be excited to see the new signings in action and how they fit into Daniel Farke’s plans.

In other news, Leeds has been linked to a move for a £7m player with the same agent as Gnonto. The Whites could soon add to their two signings this summer, with the transfer window still open. Additionally, West Bromwich Albion could sign their next Chris Brunt in a £0 promotion winner, while Derby County could gain cash from a former youth star moving on.

Overall, Leeds United is undergoing significant changes this summer, with players leaving and new signings arriving. The fans will be eager to see how the team shapes up ahead of the new season and whether they can achieve promotion back to the Premier League.
