Following issues involving the midfielder for Borussia Monchengladbach, Julian Weigl may be acquired by Leeds United.
During his early days at Borussia Dortmund, the 29-year-old shown a great deal of promise, but he has since fallen short of expectations.
The Germany international may be available for the Whites in the summer, as Daniel Farke will want extra depth at Elland Road for the upcoming campaign.
In order to have a chance in the Bundesliga, Paraag Marathe has to support the former Norwich City manager at the West Yorkshire team during the next transfer window.
According to the Rheinische Post, Gladbach is open to Weigl’s departure in the upcoming months due to interest from the Whites, and Leeds United has emerged as a transfer candidate.
According to reports, the West Yorkshire team want to recruit the German national since he will probably face fierce competition for a spot in Die Fohlen’s starting lineup.
After earning Premier League promotion, the former Norwich manager will surely want additional choices in that position, even though Ao Tanaka has shown to be a valuable acquisition at Elland Road.
Farke to demand reinforcements at Elland Road next summer
Following his season-long loan deal with the Whites last summer, Joe Rothwell has returned to Bournemouth.
During his tenure at the West Yorkshire team, the Englishman surpassed expectations, therefore it wouldn’t be shocking if they tried to sign the 30-year-old midfielder on a permanent basis.
Due to several fitness issues in the team, Farke was compelled to recruit Josuha Guilavogui in October 2024; nevertheless, the French star has also left Elland Road.
Due to injuries to Ilia Gruev and Ethan Ampadu this season, Leeds’ roster lacked depth, and they cannot afford to be in a similar predicament in the top division.
Weigl hasn’t grown into the midfield player that many had anticipated, but he should be a good fallback for the German boss come next season.
This season, the 29-year-old was an important member of Gladbach’s team and occasionally led them as captain, demonstrating his leadership abilities.
It may be an obvious transfer for Marathe to approve if the West Yorkshire team can sign the Germany international on an initial loan agreement.
