Leeds United linked with Colombian star

A look at the most recent Wednesday, November 1 transfer news involving Leeds United.

Leeds United is reportedly one of several teams monitoring Fluminense offensive midfielder Jhon Arias, according to TEAMtalk. The 26-year-old has reportedly been scouted by the Whites, Rangers, West Ham, Crystal Palace, Wolves, Burnley, Leeds United, and Leicester City, among other teams.

When Ariasa’s Fluminense team plays Argentina’s Boca Juniors in the 2023 Copa Libertadores final—the South American version of the Champions League—all eyes will be on South America. Andre, a midfielder for Fluminense, has been linked to a move to Liverpool, but his attack-minded teammate, who can play on either flank, is also drawing interest from around Europe.
