Leeds United will need to make a second offer for Rodrigo de Paul if they are to sign him, Massager Venete claim.

Leeds have already had one offer turned down for De Paul, and Andrea Radrizzani has been told to up his bid.

Udinese apparently believe that De Paul simply cannot be sold for less than £36 million, which means that Leeds would have to break their transfer record again this summer to sign him.

Leeds are yet to return for De Paul upon learning his valuation, and whether they do improve their bid in the coming weeks now remains to be seen.

If Leeds were to land the Argentine he could make a hugely exciting addition to their squad.

De Paul looks the perfect for Leeds, as he has so much quality on the ball, but also possesses the stamina levels required to thrive in Marcelo Bielsa’s system.

De Paul has been one of the stand out performers in Italy, and even at his current price, he could prove to be an outstanding addition to Leeds squad.
