Leeds United are yet to make a move in the summer transfer window. But business is expected to be concluded later this month, as the club is figuring out their targets.
Daniel Farke and the recruitment team have reportedly agreed on focusing on players with some Premier League experience. And the names linked this summer follow that trend. Sam Johnstone, Aaron Ramsdale, Callum Wilson and Jamie Vardy have all been linked this summer.
The club will need to find a balance between quality and experience as they return to the Premier League next season.

The Whites know that they need quality in order to survive the Premier League. The club seem to have found their next keeper in Yahia Fofana, and now it looks like a new striker is next on the list.
According to Breren Cross of The Athletic, Leeds have reached out to Fulham to enquire about Rodrigo Muniz. The Brazilian striker is out of contract next year, but the London club have the option of a one-year extension. Fulham are in a precarious situation, as both of their strikers have a year left on their deals.
Rodrigo Muniz has 17 goals in the last two Premier League seasons, making him one of the more prolific players outside the top six clubs.
Leeds have a chance of making this signing
There is no doubt that Leeds want to add another striker to their team. Multiple reports this summer have seen the club linked to the likes of Jamie Vardy and Callum Wilson. Daniel Farke is keen on adding some Premier League experience up top.
Rodrigo Muniz fits the bill. He has one year left on his deal, and is currently the backup striker. Leeds can easily convince him to come and be the main starter at Elland Road. His goalscoring record is impressive, and could be the difference next season.
