Sport nationLeeds United have been advised to sign Blackburn Rovers star Sammie Szmodics to bolster their attacking options and guarantee promotion to the Premier League. The Ireland international scored 33 goals in 48 matches for Rovers last season, showcasing his exceptional finishing ability.
Leeds struggled in front of goal last season, with their strikers underperforming against their xG. Georginio Rutter and Patrick Bamford combined for an xG differential of -11.16, highlighting the need for a clinical finisher like Szmodics.
Rutter’s creativity and ability to create high-quality chances make him an asset to the team, but his teammates failed to capitalize on his opportunities. Szmodics’ signing could provide the solution, as his finishing ability and experience in the Championship make him an ideal partner for Rutter.
Szmodics’ statistics last season were impressive, with 27 goals from 22.36 xG, showcasing his ability to overperform and deliver in crucial moments. His signing would provide a significant boost to Leeds’ attacking options and increase their chances of promotion.
However, some fans have expressed concerns about Szmodics’ ability to adapt to the Premier League and his positional uncertainty. Despite this, his impressive performances in the Championship make him a valuable asset, and his signing would be a smart move for Leeds.
