“Leeds United in SHOCK £17M Pursuit of ‘UNSTOPPABLE’ Championship Goal Machine – MEGA Bid Imminent!”

Leeds United are reportedly pursuing Norwich City striker Josh Sargent, exploring a potential summer move for the U.S. international.

 

According to Sky Sports journalist Sacha Tavolieri, Leeds have already contacted the player’s representatives and Norwich officials to discuss a deal.

 

While Everton’s Beto is also on their radar, Sargent has emerged as a key target, with a formal bid expected soon.

 

Following their Championship title win and return to the Premier League, Leeds are aiming to bolster their attacking options.

 

After missing out on promotion last year through a play-off final defeat to Southampton, they bounced back emphatically.

 

Leeds clinched the title on the final day of the season in dramatic fashion, finishing with 100 points and the highest goal tally in the league. Strengthening the striker position is now a top priority.

 

Sargent, who previously played in the Premier League during the 2021/22 season, is reportedly keen on returning to the top flight.

Although his last stint with Norwich in the Premier League yielded just two goals in 26 games, the American forward has since found consistent form in the Championship.

 

Over the past three seasons, he has netted 13, 16, and 15 goals respectively, totaling 44 goals in 95 league appearances.

 

A move to Leeds would reunite Sargent with former boss Daniel Farke, who brought him to Norwich from the Bundesliga in 2021.

 

Norwich are believed to be seeking around £17 million for the Missouri-born forward, and Farke’s familiarity with the player could be a decisive factor in Leeds’ efforts to seal the deal.

 

While it remains unclear whether Sargent or Beto will be Leeds’ main target, the club is determined to sign a new striker ahead of their Premier League campaign.

 

Sargent’s Championship goal record and readiness for a top-flight return make him an appealing option.

 

With Leeds now in a strong position following their promotion, they are expected to act soon to strengthen their squad—potentially giving Sargent a second shot at Premier League football under a manager who knows his capabilities well.
