Leeds United reportedly wand to raid Championship rivals Bristol City and Brentford to bring Joe Bryan and Florian Jozdefzoon to Elland Road.
The left wing was something of an area of weakness for Leeds United last season.
It has been well documented that Leeds failed to replace left-back Charlie Taylor with a player of similar quality, while they lacked a regular creative presence on the flank with Pablo Hernandez and Samu Saiz both preferring a more central role. But Leeds have now been linked with two players who could turn the left side into a position of strength.
According to Sky Sports, Leeds are one of a number of clubs interested in signing the jet-heeled Brentford winger Florian Jozefzoon. The Dutchman enjoyed a fine season at Griffin Park in 2017/18, netting seven and setting up another seven while causing problems for opposition full-backs with his speed and directness.
And although most of Josefzoon’s appearances came on the right last season, he is equally comfortable on the opposite wing and would represent an immediate upgrade on the likes of Hadi Sacko.
Just a day earlier, Leeds were also linked with another Championship assist-machine in Bristol City’s star left-back Joe Bryan. The Bristol Post claims that the Whites want the 24-year-old, who scored seven goals last season and could be available on a bargain fee after refusing a new contract.
Bryan is arguably the best in his position in the entire division and the prospect of him linking up with Jozefzoon at Elland Road should have Leeds supporters drooling.
