Patrick Bamford left Leeds United towards the end of the transfer window as a free agent. The former Whites striker has been considering his options, and there are claims that he is on his way to joining a La Liga club in the coming days.
Bamford left Leeds under acrimonious circumstances towards the end of last month. The striker’s contract was paid off, and he was allowed to leave Elland Road as a free agent after the club failed to attract offers for him.
The 32-year-old striker was not happy with the way his exit was handled. He was left out of the first team’s pre-season training over the summer, as Daniel Farke made it clear that he was not part of his plans in the Premier League.
The former Leeds striker has attracted interest from Championship clubs such as Wrexham and from teams in the MLS. However, it appears the forward is now on his way to La Liga in the coming days.
Getafe coach reacts to the Patrick Bamford transfer talks
Getafe have been in advanced negotiations with Bamford and his representatives as they look to sign the former Leeds striker on a free transfer this season.
The striker is waiting for the green light to travel to Spain as the Madrid-based club and his representatives iron out the final details of the potential agreement.
However, Getafe coach Jose Bordalas has sought to calm down the speculation and remained coy by insisting that the Bamford talk is still just a rumour.
“It’s just a rumour”, when asked about potentially signing Bamford, Bordalas said in a press conference.
However, advanced negotiations are taking place between the striker’s agents and Getafe and a deal is expected to be finalised in the coming days.
Bamford is eager to get back on the pitch and is confident he still has what it takes to compete in a top league like La Liga.
