Leeds United's attempt to ready their squad for their first season back in the Premier League is intensifying.
The Whites are eyeing a number of potential candidates this summer, and they are continuing their attempts to bring former loan star Ben White back to the club.
There is more on that and two other lots of interesting transfer rumours and gossip in our latest round-up below.
Cook return on the cards
Leeds United are said to be lining up a bid to re-sign Lewis Cook.
According to Football Insider, the Whites have Cook 'firmly' on their radar ahead of the new season.
The 23-year-old came through the club's academy before leaving on a £6m deal to Bournemouth in 2016.
Cook, who made 27 Premier League appearances last season, has two years remaining on his contract at the Vitality Stadium.
Ben White boost
Brighton have handed Leeds United a potential Ben White transfer boost.
It has been reported that Leeds have had three offers for White turned down as they aim to sign the former loan star of theirs from this past season.
Club captain Lewis Dunk has also been linked with a move away but now the Seagulls have come to terms on a new five-year deal with the defender.
It's quite possible that now hands Leeds a boost now as Brighton's stance on White could now soften.
Ryan Kent latest
Leeds United are ‘considering’ a second bid for Rangers ace Ryan Kent, report The Athletic.
Gers boss Steven Gerrard confirmed this morning that his side had turned down a bid, reported to be worth up to £10m., from the Whites.
The 23-year-old scored seven goals in 21 SPL appearances during the 2019/20 season and was on the scoresheet for Rangers’ 3-0 win over St Johnstone earlier this month.
Leeds continue to be strongly linked with Kent, but with no release clause in his contract, Rangers are holding firm.
