Leeds United are actively revamping their squad as they prepare for their second season in the Premier League. Daniel Farke and the club know the demands following their survival last year.

The aim will to be survive once again, and if possible finish around 14th place.

The Whites have taken massive steps towards that with their recruits so far. Harry Wilson comes in with tonnes of Premier League experience and will add a sharp edge to the attack.

Tarik Muharemovic comes in as a top quality replacement for Pascal Struijk.

Revamping this team will also mean some inevitable exits. Leeds were unable to move on some first team players last summer as they were not in the club’s plans for the league.

And unfortunately for the club, most of them have returned after their temporary deals.

Max Wober, Isaac Schmidt, Joe Gelhardt, Mateo Joseph and Largie Ramazani all did not get permanent transfers following their loans. The Whites did manage to move Schmidt, who has recently gone back to Switzerland.

The rest of these players are still with the club, and their futures are uncertain so far.

After impressing in the latter stages of the campaign, Valencia showed serious interest in signing Largie Ramazani. They sent their club CEO for talks over a move, but nothing has progressed.

The winger remains with the club, as the La Liga side are not able to meet the financial requirements of a deal.

According to Diario Sport in Spain, Leeds United are now waiting for clubs with a ‘higher financial capacity’ than Valencia to move for Ramazani.

What do Leeds do with Largie Ramazani this summer?

Largie Ramazani remains under contract for the next two seasons at Elland Road.

His performances on loan have shown that he is a talented player that can contribute something at this level. Valencia are interested in signing him but the financials are a stumbling block.

The 49ers brought him in for around £10 million, which will be around what they expect to recoup in a sale.

There is another alternative, where the club end up keeping the winger this season. Ramazani is still a very good player, and offers a terrific wide threat when he is on his game.

Seeing how poor Dan James and Wilfried Gnonto were last season, maybe he could get a shot at the first team.
