Leeds United have reportedly intensified their summer transfer efforts by tabling a series of offers for Newcastle United midfielder Sean Longstaff. The 26-year-old, who played a key role in Newcastle’s midfield last season, has attracted strong interest from Elland Road as Daniel Farke looks to bolster his squad ahead of their Premier League return.
Sources close to the negotiations indicate that Leeds are keen to secure Longstaff’s services early in the window, viewing him as a vital addition to strengthen their midfield engine room. Known for his work rate, ball retention, and Premier League experience, Longstaff fits the profile of player Leeds are targeting to add top-flight quality and leadership to their core.
Newcastle are believed to be weighing up the offers, with Eddie Howe reluctant to lose the academy graduate but aware of potential squad reshuffling amid Financial Fair Play considerations. Leeds remain optimistic that a deal can be struck, especially with Longstaff entering the final year of his contract.
Should the move materialize, Longstaff would become the fourth major signing of Leeds’ ambitious summer window.
