20M transfer DONE DEAL: Leeds to release whooping £20m to sign player, personal terms not an issue

Leeds United is interested in signing Middlesbrough striker Emmanuel Latte Lath in the January transfer window. The Whites are looking to strengthen their attacking options, and Latte Lath has emerged as a top target.

According to transfer expert Graeme Bailey, Leeds United wants Latte Lath “now” and is willing to pay £20m to secure his services. Bailey believes that Latte Lath is a good Championship striker who could excel in the Premier League.

Latte Lath has been in impressive form for Middlesbrough this season, scoring 10 goals and providing two assists in the Championship. His statistics suggest that he is a clinical finisher with a high success rate in dribbles.

The 25-year-old Ivorian striker has been compared to Leroy Lita, a former Championship striker who played for several clubs, including Bristol City, Reading, and Middlesbrough. However, Latte Lath has already shown that he can be more consistent than Lita, and a move to Leeds United could be the perfect opportunity for him to take his game to the next level.

With West Ham having stopped their interest in Latte Lath, Leeds United may have a clear run at signing the striker. However, Middlesbrough is reportedly holding out for a fee of £15m, which Leeds United may be willing to meet.

The signing of Latte Lath would be a significant boost to Leeds United’s promotion hopes. The Whites are currently pushing for a return to the Premier League, and the addition of a proven Championship striker like Latte Lath could be the key to unlocking their goalscoring potential.
