Leeds United could again target players entering the final year of their contracts to exploit reduced leverage. Recent examples include Jayden Bogle, signed from Sheffield United for £5m, and Ao Tanaka from Fortuna Dusseldorf as he neared his final year. It has proved a useful tactic.
According to Transfermarkt, an XI of such options across the Premier League and Europe is reaching that 12-month stage, with names from Arsenal, Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund among them.
GK Noah Atubolu, Freiburg, 24, valued at £21.6m. RB Milan van Ewijk, Coventry City, 25, £19m.
CB Jhon Lucumi, Bologna, 27, £19m. CB Antonio Silva, Benfica, 22, £21.6m.
LB David Raum, RB Leipzig, 28, £21.6m. CM Raphael Onyedika, Club Brugge, 25, £19.9m.
