The future of a number of players at Leeds United will be decided when the summer window comes around. Daniel Farke made some key decisions about the squad before the season began.
The club’s recruitment team brought in 10 new signings to augment the team in the Premier League. That meant increased competition for places, and in some cases, first team stars were going to be replaced.
Max Wober, Isaac Schmidt, Mateo Joseph and Largie Ramazani were among the players allowed to leave Elland Road. Almost all of them left on loan, so their future will be clear at the end of the season.
Leeds United ace could be on the move this summer
Ramazani’s exit came as a bit of surprise, as his deal took place in the second week at the start of the league. Many thought the Belgian would get a real chance at first team action after showing some signs towards the end of last season.
| Competition | Games | Goals + Assists |
|---|---|---|
| La Liga | 16 | 5 |
| Copa del Rey | 4 | 1 |
| TOTAL | 20 | 6 |
The winger started life well in Spain, getting an assist on his debut but injury and fitness slowed him down in the middle of the campaign. However, over the last month he has kicked on, scoring four goals in six games. Superdeportes are reporting that the winger has fully earned the trust of Valencia coach Carlos Corberan – the former Leeds coach played a big role in the Belgian ending up there in August. This could now play a huge part at the end of the season, with the Spanish side showing interest in a permanent deal.

Summer transfer could be the best for Largie Ramazani
Sometimes with footballers, a change of environment is the best thing they need. Largie Ramazani came into Elland Road with a huge reputation and never really settled till the end of the season. He showed promise ahead of this campaign, but was then suddenly sent out on loan by Daniel Farke.
Moving to Valencia seems to have done a lot for his confidence; he is playing at a very high level this season and is proving that he can still be an asset to the Whites. But now, it looks like he has settled in Spain and could move there on a permanent deal if everything goes according to plan. Leeds United will be ultimate factor to decide what happens this summer.
