Leeds United face the dauting task of Premier League survival next season. The club now have over 60 days till the start of the new season.
The Whites know that they have to get their transfers right during this transfer window. Adding quality and depth is key as they know the quality of the opposition they will be facing. The past two seasons have seen all three newly promoted clubs be relegated in the same campaign.
Daniel Farke and the recruitment team have decided to focus on Premier League experience when it comes to transfers. Most of the club’s recent targets fall under this bracket. Having players with experience in the top flight help the team massively. Aaron Ramsdale, Beto and Sean Longstaff are just some of the names linked with a move to Elland Road recently.

The 31-year old moved to Turkey after close to a decade in English football, and could be now set for a sensational return. Leicester City and Leeds are keen on a move, with the Whites having prepared an offer.
Besiktas are also reportedly happy to move on from Oxlade-Chamberlain to get his salary off the wage bill. The midfielder has one year remaining on his current deal at the club.
Oxlade-Chamberlain could be a useful addition
Premier League experience is something Leeds could do with next season. Oxlade-Chamberlain could be a very good squad player, as he offers dynamism and attacking instinct in midfield. The 31-year old has a different profile from some of the club’s players, and can also be deployed in different attacking roles.
If his wages are not a huge obstacle, the Whites definitely need to push for a deal.
