Leeds United transfer rumours: £17.8m Josko Gvardiol bid, Emiliano Martinez latest

With just over a week to go until Leeds United make their Premier League return, the pressure is on for the Whites to finalise any business they want completed before the new season starts.

Whilst the Whites have until October to sign players, most clubs will no doubt be keen to bring in players before the new campaign starts.

With that in mind, here is the very latest Leeds transfer news

Emery wants Martinez reunion

The Times report that Villarreal have joined the race for Arsenal goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez.

Leeds were strongly linked with Martinez last season, with the Argentine's form after Bernd Leno's injury alerting many clubs to his talents.

Aston Villa are also said to be keen on the 27-year-old, who is also reportedly in talks with Arsenal over a new contract.

Villa are reportedly planning to offer £10m for the goalkeeper.

Gvardiol bid made

Croatian outlet 24 Sata report that Leeds have made a £17.8m bid for Josko Gvardiol.

It was reported earlier this week that the Whites have opened talks with Dinamo Zagreb over a potential deal for the 18-year-old.

Dinamo are reportedly yet to reject the offer for the defender, with the club said to be realistic over the prospect of Gvardiol's value not improving much more than this.

Campana staying put

Super Deporte claim that Leeds target Jose Gomez Campana is set to stay at Levante after missing out on a move to Spain.

The Whites had been linked with Campana last month, with reports claiming that they were reading to meet Levante's asking price of £27m.

Aston Villa were also linked with a move for the player, who was said to prefer a return to Sevilla.

Yet Sevilla's deal for Ivan Rakitic means Campana's exit routes from Levante have been cut off.
