Leeds have 'stuck their nose at the window' as battle to sign 17 G/A beast intensifies

Leeds United are among a host of clubs interested in signing Club Brugge attacking midfielder Noa Lang this summer, according to a fresh transfer rumour.

The 22-year-old has continued to enhance his reputation as one of the Netherlands’ brightest young players, producing consistently influential performances for Club Brugge in Belgium, for whom he has scored six goals and registered 11 assists in all competitions this season.

The Dutchman has been linked with a move to Leeds recently, and the rumour shows no signs of going away.

According to De Standaard [via Sport Witness], Leeds have ‘stuck their nose at the window’ as they attempt to lure Lang to Elland Road.

The midfielder is still weighing up his options ahead of a likely summer exit from Brugge, though, and the Whites’ current on-pitch struggles could work against them.

Lang seems to be a great talent who could add so much to this Leeds side, with his all-round game potentially flourishing under a manager of Marcelo Bielsa’s ilk.

His aforementioned quality on the ball is clear to see but he is also a feisty player off it, picking up six yellow cards and one red in the Jupiler Pro League this season, along with averaging 1.3 tackles per game in the Champions League.

That work ethic and will to win without the ball suggests that he could thrive for Leeds, where Bielsa demands an incredible physical effort from his players. Plus, they will be in need of more guile in the summer, especially if 2021/22 top scorer Raphinha leaves the club amid reported interest in his services from elsewhere.

In other news, Leeds are reportedly eyeing up a move for one in-form starlet. Find out who it is here.
