Leeds United are one of three sides looking into a possible deal for Stoke winger Million Manhoef as they explore a potential Plan B for Jonathan Rowe – with the cost of luring the player away from Steven Schumacher’s men now coming to light, TEAMtalk can reveal.
Ever since Leeds failed to secure an immediate return to the Premier League, following their Championship play-off final loss to Southampton in May, fans braced themselves for some of their prized assets to leave.Many were taken aback when academy jewel Archie Gray left for Tottenham for a fee worth up to £40m in early July, especially as Leeds supporters expected to lose Crysencio Summerville and Gnonto instead of the 18-year-old.
The Dutch winger – who scored 21 goals, bagged 10 assists, and won the Championship Player of the Year award last season – ended up getting his Premier League move earlier this month, though, with West Ham securing the 22-year-old’s services for a fee of £25m plus add-ons.
With the new Championship season underway, the Whites are standing firm on holding onto fellow wide man Gnonto, with TEAMtalk previously revealing Everton remain keen on the 20-year-old.
