£25m striker keen on joining Jesse Marsch at Leeds United before deadline

Posted by

Leeds United have not quite gone full Nottingham Forest this transfer window, but they have been one of the larger shakers and movers. It seems they have one last big move in them too.

According to SkySports, via MOTLeeds, Leeds are keen on bringing Wolves striker Hwang Hee-Chan to the club. The 26-year-old moved to Wolves last summer on loan and cost them £15m to make that deal permanent. One of the key stumbling blocks is likely to be his price tag.

It is said that Wolves want a further £10m, taking the price to £25m, on top of what they paid earlier this summer. However the South Korean international is seemingly keen to make the move, which might increase the chances of a deal being struck.

In particular, Jesse Marsch is one of the attractions. Hee-Chan and Marsch worked together twice at RB Leipzig and RB Salzburg previously and the pair want to reunite again. Although Hee-Chan scored just five times last season, it is clear from the amount of minutes he is given and his goal record that his impact goes far beyond just putting the ball in the net.

  1. Please do not sign him. 5 goals in last season is not good enough for Leeds United.
    Sign Cody Gapko who already have 20+ goals and assistants in last season and huge career mode potential.

  2. Please do not sign him: 5 goals in last season is not good enough for Leeds United forward.
    Please sign Cody Gakpo who is 23 year old, has 20+ goals and assists as well as rating 7+ in last year and huge career mode potential.

  3. Let sign Cody Gakpo he younger and scores more and has a better assists and look what happen when we signs players from wolves before

  4. I think Marsch teamed up with his granny when he was a kid on a shopping trip. Does that mean we are linked with her too?

  5. I was very sceptical about Marsch when he came in but he’s winning me over, all the lads he’s worked with before have fitted straight in .If the gaffa likes them and they have played his game before and have the right mentality let’s bring him in.
