Leeds United transfer causes owner split as midfielder's fee goes up by £14m
Leeds United still have a week left in the transfer window and may add to Daniel Farke’s squad, but the manager says spending must remain financially sustainable. Igor Paixao has resurfaced as a possible target, with Marseille’s ownership reportedly keen to sell while coach Bruno Genesio opposes an exit; Leeds Live says he is not currently a serious or advanced target. Pavel Sulc’s reported valuation has risen from £21 million to £35 million, with Juventus, Everton, Aston Villa and Wrexham also interested, making a Leeds move less likely.
