Leeds United snubbed Jerry Mbakogu who is now a free agent. Now he could move elsewhere.
Leeds United have shown no desire to want to sign striker Jerry Mbakogu since his release from Carpi.
This is despite the Whites having a reported agreement to sign the striker at £3.5 million this summer GazzaMercato reported, which they chose not to take up.
New boss Marcelo Bielsa made clear he was not in his plans, so Leeds reneged on the agreement and Mbakogu was surprisingly released earlier this month.
Leeds are not thought to be in the hunt to sign Mbakogu as a free agent, but the forward may have an alternative.
TuttoMercatoweb report Serie B side Venezia are showing interest in the Nigerian born striker, who also now holds an Italian passport.
Mbakogu scored eight goals last season, but struggled with a knee injury in the second half of the campaign.
This will not have helped Leeds make their minds up over him, and it will be up to Mbakogu to prove them wrong.
