[team 71] are finally back in the [league 8]. Under an exceptional coach like [coach 1533119] and a board above him ready to back the squad in the market. Leeds are showing real appetite in the transfer market as they look forward to their first season back in the English top flight. They have already completed the signing of the excellent Spanish striker [player 739] from [team 214]. [player 35364] is also a Leeds player signed from [player 3543] in the [league 82]. Youngster [player 28912710] has also moved to Ellan Road from [team 19].
What does the news say?
According to Leeds Live, Leeds United are heavily linked with Bournemouth‘s [player 1834]. After his side’s relegation last season, a move back to the Premier League looked inevitable. His former club Leeds United are said to be interested with [team 52] setting a £15 million price-tag.
Former legend Jimmy Floyd Hassellbaink has also given his opinions on this transfer. Hasselbaink has urged Leeds to sign the player this summer.
“Lewis Cook is a really good midfield player and I can understand why Leeds want him back,” Hasselbaink told GentingBet.
Hassellbaink added, “He gets up and down the pitch well. Technically, he is very, very good. He would be a big plus for Leeds if he were to join.
Is Lewis Cook the right choice for Leeds United?
Last season was an abysmal season for Bournemouth. Lewis Cook‘s lack of performances was undoubtedly another reason behind it. However, the season before the last one was where everyone saw how good he could be. In that time, Cook also became Bournemouth’s first-ever player to be included in England’s senior squad. The 23-year-old was excelling in a possession-based side under [coach 523911].
Lewis Cook is a versatile midfielder with an excellent passing range. His best position is in a double pivot in the central midfield. However, Cook can also play as a solo holding midfielder. His potential arrival will bring more competition to the likes of [player 1716]. He will also add strength in depth for the new season.
Overall, this move seems good for Leeds United as they get someone with a brief Premier League experience. He can form a good partnership with young [player 3354] in the midfield zone. The price tag also looks favorable. This signing would be excellent for Leeds United and Bielsa.
