Leeds United will “authorize Joseph’s departure to Birmingham” following the transfer announcement.

Mateo Joseph, Leeds United forward is a top target for Birmingham City.

Lukas Nmecha’s arrival was been confirmed by Leeds. The Whites have not yet revealed any other additions, though, in anticipation of their Premier League comeback.

With a lot of movement anticipated in the upcoming weeks in terms of both incomings and outgoings, a number of celebrities have been connected to a transfer to Elland Road.

Daniel Farke shouldn’t be preventing Joseph from leaving the Whites this summer, as he is one of the players who could do so.

Birmingham has expressed interest in the Spanish player [GiveMeSport], therefore Leeds should be willing to accept a good price with a sell-on clause.

A chance to play frequently in the Championship will not only help Joseph’s career but also maybe raise his value because he just won’t be up to par in the top flight next season.

This could therefore enable Leeds to make more money later on.

A new number nine is required for Farke.

If Leeds want to have a chance of escaping relegation next season, they will need someone who can score goals. I don’t want to sound too much like Michael Owen, but goals win games.

Joël Piroe had a fantastic Championship season. The necessity for a new number nine at Elland Road is increased by the uncertainty around his ability to step up.

Leeds must find someone who can help them score goals in order to break the pattern of recently promoted teams immediately regressing, as a deal for Lecce’s Nikola Krstovic suddenly appears doubtful.
