Former United midfielder Gordan Strachan told OLBG: “Ipswich spent a lot last year and went down, with Leeds there's no doubt they got in financial difficulties and they had to do a lot of work last year.

United will be debuting their new away kit against Leeds, which precedes further friendlies against West Ham, Bournemouth, Everton and Fiorentina. Bryan Mbeumo, who is set to join in a £71m deal from Brentford, will not feature as his medical is scheduled for this weekend.

Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford has been told he is not in the plans of manager Daniel Farke ahead of the upcoming season as the Yorkshire club prepares for a return to the Premier League.

With their return to the Premier League fast approaching, Leeds United continue to sharpen their attacking options—and the latest name linked to Elland Road is Chelsea youngster Marc Guiu. As reported by Graeme Bailey for Leeds United News, the Whites have “looked at” the 18-year-old Spanish striker as a possible loan addition this summer.
