Leeds United reportedly want to bring Gavin Whyte and Mohamed Eisa to Elland Road in the summer transfer window.

Leeds United have endured yet another disappointing season in the Championship, and one suspects that there will be some major changes to the squad in the summer transfer window.

Fans of the Elland Road faithful will expect some important signings made this summer, but recent speculation suggests that it could be underwhelming.

According to reports in the media, Crusaders winger Gavin Whyte and Cheltenham Town forward Mohamed Eisa have been linked with moves to the Whites in the summer transfer window.

Sky Sports reported earlier this month that Leeds are in talks to sign Whyte from Crusaders, while GloucesteshireLive reported that the Whites watched Eisa in action for Cheltenham against Crewe Alexandra this past weekend.

Whyte is a promising and talented 22-year-old winger, while Eisa is 23 years of age and has been playing well as a forward for Cheltenham this season.

However, neither of the players is exactly a big name and not from a major domestic league, and one suspects that Leeds fans will not be too impressed that the club are trying to sign him.

If Leeds want to win promotion from the Championship next season, then what they did are quality and established players who can make an instant impact in the team.

Perhaps Leeds being linked with Whyte and Eisa is a sign of the kind of players that the club will sign this summer and the investment they will make.
