Leeds manager Daniel Farke could be preparing his team for a return to the Premier League this summer amid a nailbiting Championship title race
Liverpool legend Mark Lawrenson has urged Leeds United, Leicester City, Ipswich Town and whoever else could be promoted to the Premier League this season to enter the race for Blackburn Rovers star Sammie Szmodics.
So far, the 28-year-old has a whopping 30 goals to his name in all competitions including 24 in the Championship. Szmodics has been utilised as a centre-forward this campaign as well as an attacking midfielder and will be familiar to Leeds fans.Last time out the midfielder scored the only goal of the game as Blackburn beat the Whites 1-0 at Elland Road to put a spanner in the works of Leeds' promotion push.
"I couldn’t see him fitting into any of the teams in the top 10 of the Premier League, but he’s not far away as he’s a goal scorer, and that’s priceless for any team." Leeds can move back into the automatic promotion places on Monday night when they travel to Middlesbrough.
