Leeds United transfer latest as Paixao stance set out and Gelhardt interest grows | OneFootball

Leeds United’s summer window continues to stir, with Marseille setting out their stance on Igor Paixao, Borussia Monchengladbach insisting no bids have arrived for Nico Elvedi, and fresh movement around Joe Gelhardt, Sebastiaan Bornauw and Lucas Perri.

Marseille head coach Bruno Genesio said Paixao has been central to many dangerous attacks and goals, described him as very important and stressed he wants to keep his best players. He added some transfer decisions fall outside his remit.

Monchengladbach said no offers have been received for Elvedi amid links to Elland Road. The Athletic reports Sebastiaan Bornauw is nearing a move to Hamburg, with Hamburg aiming to finalise later this week, and Leeds may seek a replacement first.

Sportmediaset claims Lucas Perri is set to arrive at Torino on Thursday for a medical ahead of a move from Leeds, and he is expected to become first choice in goal.

Hull City want to sign Gelhardt permanently after his 18-month loan, but the Mail reports Wrexham are preparing a £4.5m bid for the 24-year-old forward.

Football Insider reports RB Leipzig are favourites to sign Liverpool forward Harvey Elliott, which would be a blow to Leeds after links earlier in the window. Elliott returned to Anfield after spending last season on loan at Aston Villa.
