One thing newly promoted sides often suffer is that they lose players a lot. Leeds United fans will know all about losing players after the events of last summer.
Losing the Championship play-off final to Southampton set off a chain of events that saw a host of departures from Elland Road. Daniel Farke lost Archie Gray, Georginio Rutter and Crysencio Summerville in one window, and still managed to win promotion this season.
Leeds have had some stellar performers during this campaign. And multiple clubs are already monitoring their situations ahead of this summer. From Joe Rodon at the back, to Junior Firpo and Jayden Bogle, there were some standout players during the season.

Manor Solomon stepped up in the last few games that saw Leeds promoted. When Dan James missed out with a hamstring problem, Solomon was there to pick up the pieces. The forward had two goals and three assists in the three game winning run that sealed automatic promotion.
Solomon will return to his parent club this summer, but reports claim that he could join Leeds on a permanent deal this summer. The Whites are not the only suitors for Solomon, as GiveMeSport are reporting that Everton and Southampton are also in the race.
The report hints that both clubs will find it difficult to convince the 25-year old to turn down a move to Elland Raod.
Leeds need to snap up Solomon
A player that has enjoyed his time at Elland Road, and has had a productive season should be a no-brainer this summer. Daniel Farke needs to push to have Manor Solomon in the team next season. Leeds already have the upper hand, the club must now make sure that they capitalize on it.
