Burnley have added seasoned winners like Kyle Walker, while Wolves face a tough rebuild after key departures. Sunderland, however, are making a statement—having already spent big on Habib Diarra and now reportedly securing a £23 million deal for Club Brugge star Chemsdine Talbi, as they gear up for a serious fight for top-flight survival.

Sunderland’s hopes of signing Dynamo Kyiv striker Vladyslav Vanat have been thrown into doubt, despite being the only club to make formal contact with the Ukrainian side. While reports initially suggested a rising price tag, journalist Mikhail Spivakovsky dismissed claims of an inflated fee as “absurd,” insisting the €20m release clause remains intact. However, he also questioned whether a move to Wearside was realistic, casting doubt over the Black Cats’ pursuit.

Leeds Launch Bold £20m Swoop for Striker Set to Become Farke’s Undroppable Weapon

May 29, 2025 RAYMOND 0

Leeds United are stepping up their summer business with a bold move for Newcastle striker Callum Wilson, a player described as “incredible” and seen as a guaranteed starter under Daniel Farke next season. With Premier League survival the top priority, the club is targeting experienced, proven talent to avoid the fate that befell Ipswich, Leicester, and Southampton last season. Wilson, whose contract at Newcastle is set to expire, is attracting interest from several clubs—but Leeds are confident that the promise of regular game time could tip the scales in their favour. While his injury record raises valid concerns, a fully fit Wilson could be the difference-maker Leeds need in their top-flight return.

Sam Allardyce’s managerial journey has seen no shortage of twists, but few chapters were as turbulent as his time at Newcastle United. Arriving just days before Mike Ashley’s takeover, Allardyce later admitted he felt doomed from the outset. His stint lasted a mere six months, marred by uninspiring performances and mid-table stagnation, before Ashley pulled the plug. Years later, reflecting on the most passionate fanbases he’d encountered, Allardyce raised eyebrows by naming Newcastle, Everton, and West Ham—snubbing Sunderland and Leeds United despite his former ties. “When you’ve got the biggest support, you’ve got the loudest noise,” he told TAG Sports.

Leeds Let a ‘Monster’ Slip Away for Nothing – Now He’s Worth More Than Ampadu

May 19, 2025 RAYMOND 0

Leeds United were recently forced to defend their captain, Ethan Ampadu, after a social media post by his former partner stirred controversy. The club clarified that the pair are separated and that Ampadu had no role in the post, which featured their child in a Galatasaray shirt. It’s an unfortunate distraction from what has otherwise been a brilliant season for the Welsh international, who now holds a market value of €16 million—more than double what Leeds paid for him in 2023.

Meanwhile, former Leeds defender Robin Koch, who left on a free transfer in 2024, has seen his value soar after a strong season with Eintracht Frankfurt. Now attracting interest from top Bundesliga clubs, Koch could command a fee of up to €20 million. For Leeds, it’s a stark reminder of the cost of letting a valuable asset walk away for nothing.
