Leeds United are almost certain to sign a striker or two in the summer transfer window if they get promoted to the Premier League. Goals are like gold dust for promoted teams and the Whites would need a forward who could score regularly in the top flight next season. Leeds have already been looking at several strikers and are said to have four names on their shortlist. However, the Whites have also been linked with other forwards and the club are expected to cast their net far and wide to bolster their attacking options in the summer. It has been claimed Leeds could have an ace in their pack in pursuit of a striker in Italy.
The Whites are at the summit of the Championship table and are well on their way to securing promotion to the Premier League at the end of the season.
The promotion talk around Elland Road has led to speculation over what Leeds United would need to do in the summer to bolster their squad and get them Premier League ready.
Leeds are expected to sign strikers in the summer to bolster their attacking options as they are aware that they would need to score goals to ensure that they can survive in the Premier League.
The Whites are looking at an array of forwards in the summer transfer window and a striker with Premier League experience would be favoured by the Yorkshire giants in the summer.
It has been claimed that former Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham is one of the forwards the club are tracking ahead of the summer transfer window.
The ace in the pack Leeds United could use in pursuit of the former Chelsea man
Tammy Abraham is on loan at AC Milan from Roma at the moment and has scored eight goals this season in all competitions.
He is said to be keen on a return to England where he previously played for Chelsea and Aston Villa and Leeds are claimed to be considering signing him.
Abraham’s Premier League experience appeals to Leeds and the Whites are considering making an offer to take him to Elland Road in the summer transfer window.
Journalist Graeme Bailey stressed that Abraham wants to get back into the England squad and doing well at Leeds could get him the chance to get into the Three Lions squad again.
However, several other clubs are expected to be interested in the striker and Leeds would face severe competition if they make a concrete move to land Abraham.
“He has real ambitions to play for England and to do that he needs to be playing, and that is something that Leeds could potentially offer and he would present them with a clear upgrade, in theory”, Bailey told Leeds United News.
“But to get Abraham will not be easy.”
Abraham would be a smart piece of business for Leeds
Leeds are facing a massive overhaul of their squad in terms of scale if they get promoted to the Premier League at the end of the season.
The struggles of the promoted teams in the top flight this season have shown the difficulty of the task Leeds are facing this summer if they want to give themselves a chance of survival.

Leeds are aware that they need forwards who can score goals in the Premier League and Abraham has shown that he can perform in the top flight.
The forward is keen to return to England and Leeds are prepared to try and tempt him to move to Elland Road if they get promoted to the Premier League.
Abraham’s physicality and Premier League experience would make him a very smart piece of business in the next transfer window.
