Leeds United are said to be chasing Wolverhampton Wanderers defender Danny Batth.
Danny Batth’s addition at Leeds United would make them a far more physically imposing team at the back.
Marcelo Bielsa’s side have made a wonderful start to the campaign, but if there has been one weakness that has been exposed it is in their central defence.
Against Swansea City, Leeds were effectively forced to play with four full-backs in their defence, and their lack of physical presence was obvious.
Oliver McBurnie dominated aerially against the Leeds backline, and helped Swansea pick up a 2-2 draw in the contest.
However, if Batth arrives, then Leeds will start to look far more physically dominate.
Bielsa would have the option to play with Jansson and Batth at the back, and Leeds could feel certain at not being dominated aerially with those two starting.
Jansson and Batth are both fierce competitors, who are blessed with great physical qualities.
And if Leeds can make the signing of Batth from Wolverhampton Wanderers, as the Daily Mirror suggests, then he could help iron out one of their weaknesses over the early part of the season.
