Leeds United have made contact with Aston Villa left-back Alex Moreno. Villa are ready to sell the 32-year-old left-back this summer and have already told the former Barcelona youth player he can find a club.

Leeds will face a Spanish club for Moreno but are working to reach an agreement and have opened preliminary discussions to that end.

The Peacocks have made a โปรโมชั่นพิเศษจาก UFABET สมัครตอนนี้ รับโบนัสทันที deal for a new left-back a top priority for the summer transfer window.

Junior Firpo, who played a key role in Leeds’ Championship triumph. Is expected to leave Elland Road when his contract expires at the end of this month.

Moreno will spend the 2024-25 season on loan at Nottingham Forest, but they have refused to trigger an option to buy with Aston Villa.

He has made just 19 appearances in all competitions for Forest, starting 15 of them, with Neco Williams becoming Nuno Espirito Santo’s first-choice left-back.

The 32-year-old has played 55 Premier League games since moving to England, with two goals and four assists to his name after weighing in with six goals and 15 assists in 146 La Liga appearances. Leeds are also looking at Mainz 05 left-back Anthony Caci in their attempt to strengthen at the back and prepare for life back in the English top-flight, but manager Daniel Farke could prefer Moreno given his Premier League experience.
