Since July 1, Julian Brandt has been without a club and is therefore no longer a Borussia Dortmund player. Even so, it remains exciting to see where the attacking player will end up.
And lately, his options have tended to shrink rather than grow. The former Germany international had an offer from Ajax on the table, which is reportedly still valid. Less current are the rumors of a move to Spain, which have now not been confirmed.
Instead, Brandt still considers Serie A an option, but the teams from Italy have been very cautious when it comes to their interest in Brandt.
In the Premier League, Leeds United are still pushing hard to sign the attacking player. According to Italian journalist Luca Bendoni, the team coached by Daniel Farke has also submitted a concrete offer and wants to tempt Brandt with a three-year contract.

The talks so far have focused on his sporting role, the club’s project, and salary expectations. Brandt’s father and agent, Jürgen, was at the Thorp Arch training center last week, where he met with senior club representatives. Further negotiations are expected to follow.
Brandt is said to be generally excited about the chance to play in the Premier League. Nevertheless, there are still at least a few details to be clarified before anything can be finalized. After all, Brandt’s camp is under no pressure, even if the transfer deadlines ultimately are not met.
What is clear is that, at his best, the player is still capable of making the difference. Leeds in particular would certainly benefit from a bit more structure in attack. The only question now is whether Brandt is waiting for another club or is about to dive even deeper into talks with the English side.
