Leeds United journalist has identified a midfielder that could be the answer to the club’s prayers.
Simon McGilligan, on the One Leeds Fan Channel, has called for free agent Max Meyer to come to Elland Road.
His name may ring a bell for Premier League supporters as he once had a torrid spell at Crystal Palace.
But, highly rated as a youngster, the 25-year-old German still has that spark that could help Leeds in that midfield area which they so desperately need.
McGilligan said: “I look at him being 25 years of age, I look at our individual, our unique, our superb, our great coach in Marcelo Bielsa, and how he’s able to hone ability, how he’s able to hone results from the players that he’s had his disposal at Leeds United. And I think to myself, for a free transfer, why not? 25 years of age, a considerable amount left, and in that attacking-midfield role.
“A lot has come under Max Meyer in terms of his career, a lot of things have gone on and I do think to myself, if he’s just given that chance under the right coach – which I don’t think he’s had in his career – that could be a goer.”
