Leeds United’s transfer window is not going as planned.
Leeds United appear to have missed out on signing Brentford winger Florian Jozefzoon and fans are unimpressed.
Pressure is now building on Leeds sporting director Victor Orta after it emerged Jozefboon has chosen Derby and is undergoing a medical with the club.
The Sun first reported Jozefzoon choosing Derby and HITC Sport has since been able to independently verify this.
Their report stated: “The Brentford winger, 27, is understood to be undergoing a medical at the Rams ahead of a £2.75million switch.”
Jozefzoon had a solid if unspectacular record for Brentford last season.
He could have been a worthy addition to Leeds, but it is no disaster to miss out = yet that somehow makes their failure looks worse considering how they tried.
However it follows a common theme of the club failing to seal key targets, with Abel Hernandez and Matej Vydra so far beyond their reach.
In those cases, Leeds were aiming high. Jozefboon is more affordable, yet they still have not been able to pull it off.
There are three weeks left until the season starts and Leeds are yet to secure a permanent signing.
Fans are increasingly fed up and are calling for sporting director Victor Orta to be fired, with a less than impressive first season already in the books.
