Leeds United have booked their place in the Premier League next season. But one question has been making the rounds recently; who will score for the Whites next season?
Joel Piroe will be the obvious answer, the striker has netted 19 league goals this year with two games still to go. But there is still the feeling that Piroe is not cut out for the top flight. His supporting cast have performed better than him for most parts of the season.
Brenden Aaronson is also another player who has been questioned this season, his fit in the team heading into the Premier League has been a topic for discussion recently.

It is well known that the only reason the American became first choice number 10 this season is because Leeds failed to sign Daniel Farke’s first choice targets. Aaronson’s work rate and ability to press makes the system tick, and he poses some ability to play a killer pass. But his decisiveness infront of goal is questionable.
Leeds have now been linked with Norwich City star Borja Sainz according to Graeme Bailey. The Whites are keeping their eye on the Spaniard after the season he’s had – 17 goals in the Championship so far. No fee has been mentioned, but Premier League football will be a huge factor in any possible transfer.
Borja Sainz is the quality attacker Leeds need
It does not hurt to add quality to any attack. Leeds will be going to the Premier League with Gnonto, James, Piroe, Mateo and Bamford as options. This is where a player like Borja Sainz fits in.

His ability to play across the attack, and even behind the striker will be very useful to Daniel Farke. 17 goals as a player that does not play as a striker is very impressive. Leeds United need to move fast.
