Leeds United £3.3million target responds to transfer rumours

Dejan Ljubičić of Köln has addressed the transfer rumors circulating about him. The midfielder is being considered by Leeds United as a potential replacement for Glen Kamara.

There are just 12 months remaining on Ljubičić’s contract. The Austrian isn’t interested in staying longer at the RheinEnergieStadion, according to BILD. Although Die Geißböcke would prefer to pay him out this summer, it looks like they’re ready to take the chance on holding onto him.

Köln doesn’t appear ready to part with the midfield player, despite the Whites preparing to return with a stronger offer. Due to personal problems and ailments, the Austrian had a challenging season last year.

However, this season has brought about some changes. The 26-year-old midfielder, who helped set up a goal in their 1-2 first-round loss to Hamburger SV, is back to his best.

Dejan gave his opinion on the transfer speculations in an interview with 90Minuten.

Dejan appears eager to concentrate on the task at hand. It is likely that Ljubičić doesn’t want to stir up trouble with the club, fans, or management during these difficult circumstances.

Conversely, FC Köln was winning two seasons prior, but The Billy Goats’ season didn’t go as expected. The German team will now compete for a promotion to the German second division.

Leeds United may benefit from the 2. Bundesliga team’s difficult circumstances. Köln is steadfast in their refusal to sell the Austrian, despite their issues.

The West Yorkshire company will need to submit a fresh, compelling offer. Raising the transfer fee threshold should help with this since Leeds doesn’t have a lot of financial difficulties. This summer’s player sales have brought in enough money for the team.
