Leeds United have reportedly made a huge bid for Spartak Moscow hitman Ze Luis.

According to Championat in Russia, Leeds United have offered a huge €12million (£10.5million) for Spartak Moscow striker Ze Luis.

The Whites tied up their first January signing last week by bringing in Real Madrid goalkeeper Kiko Casilla, and Ruch Chorzow midfielder Mateusz Bogusz appears to be nearing a move.

Marcelo Bielsa may still be keen on more additions though, and reports in Russia claim that a huge bid has been placed for a proven striker.

Championat report that Leeds have offered a whopping £10.5million for Spartak Moscow hitman Ze Luis, but they have absolutely no plans to sell this month.

Ze Luis, 27, joined Spartak from Braga in 2015, and has been in prolific form this season with 11 goals in 24 games in all competitions, as well as one assist.

A Cape Verde international with two goals in 17 caps, Ze Luis stands at 6ft tall and provides a strong all-round game, possessing technical ability, pace, strength and aerial ability.

He has never really been the most prolific striker, but his form this season has allegedly seen Leeds submit a huge bid ahead of next week’s transfer deadline.

With Spartak reluctant to sell though, it seems that Leeds would have to go even higher to strike a deal – and that seems unlikely given the massive deal already offered.
