Leeds United summer signings rated, Trafford and Muharemovic earn nine out of 10 | OneFootball

Leeds United are unbeaten in five to start the Premier League season, two wins and three draws leaving them fifth at the international break. As reported by yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk, this is an early assessment of the seven summer arrivals after five league matches and a couple of Carabao Cup ties.

Club record £40m goalkeeper James Trafford is rated nine. He has made the most saves and owns the highest save percentage in the division and is part of a joint-best defence. A few loose passes aside, he looks calm receiving the ball under pressure.

Tarik Muharemovic also scores nine. One of only three outfielders to have played every league minute, the 23-year-old has been colossal at the back and is already a crowd favourite.

Nico Elvedi gets eight. Signed as Sebastiaan Bornauw departed on loan and initially seen as fourth-choice cover, he has proved an upgrade and has started the past three league games ahead of Jaka Bijol. The Swiss international looks instantly at home.

Michael Zetterer is marked at four. He conceded six on debut at Chelsea, a chastening afternoon without outright howlers, with some efforts saveable and others beyond him. At 31 and signed cheaply, he was brought in as back-up.

Melvin Bard receives six. His mixed debut at Chelsea has been followed by limited minutes with Gabriel Gudmundsson fit again. He had 19 minutes against Newcastle and threw himself into a couple of hefty challenges, looking a capable option on loan cover.
