“£17M SUPERSTAR Begs to Join Leeds in Blockbuster Summer Move, Set to Form UNSTOPPABLE Duo with Beto!”
Leeds United must strengthen their squad to boost their chances of surviving in the Premier League next season.
A key focus is the attacking line, with growing doubts over Joel Piroe’s ability to perform at top-flight level.
Despite scoring 19 goals in the Championship and notably netting four in one half against Stoke City, Piroe’s lack of physical presence is a concern.
His low duel win rate — losing 73% of battles — suggests he might struggle against Premier League defenders.
As a result, the club is eyeing Everton striker Beto as a potential upgrade.
The Portuguese forward already has Premier League experience and offers a more physical and dynamic option than Piroe.
Beto has proven effective in both attacking and defensive phases of the game, excelling in aerial duels and showing better out-of-possession stats than Piroe.
In the current campaign, he has scored eight goals from 6.63 expected goals (xG) in just 13 starts, underlining his clinical finishing and overall reliability in front of goal.
Beto’s arrival wouldn’t be the only attacking reinforcement. Tottenham winger Manor Solomon is also open to a permanent move to Elland Road after a successful loan spell.
TEAMtalk reports that Solomon, despite interest from Marseille, is keen on rejoining Leeds, citing his positive experience at the club. Spurs reportedly value the Israeli international at around £17 million.
Solomon’s return could be vital to maximizing Beto’s strengths. A versatile and creative winger, Solomon created 21 big chances in 39 league games for Leeds and earned praise for his flair and unpredictability.
Former Leeds manager Neil Redfearn even described him as “unplayable at times.”
His ability to deliver precise crosses and unlock defences could provide the service Beto thrives on, particularly given the striker’s proficiency in scoring with both feet and his head.
In conclusion, signing both Beto and Solomon could significantly improve Leeds’ attacking options and bolster their survival hopes.
Beto brings physicality, top-flight experience, and a clinical edge, while Solomon offers creativity and high chance creation.
Securing both would be a statement of intent from the 49ers ownership, giving manager Daniel Farke the tools to keep Leeds in the Premier league.
