Leeds United Eyeing Late Loan Move for Top Attacking Target
Leeds United could be handed a late lifeline in their bid to sign the player who is their top attacking target, according to the Daily Mirror.
The Yorkshire outfit are in the race for automatic promotion from the Championship and they want to bring in a forward to strengthen their hopes. Leeds put seven goals past Cardiff City on Saturday, but manager Daniel Farke still feels the need for more firepower as the business end of the season approaches.
Leeds went in with a recent loan bid for Southampton hitman Cameron Archer, but were knocked back; he has remained their top target. Archer has failed to impress for the Saints since joining them in the summer, and Southampton are considering signing a forward.
West Ham United striker Danny Ings has been linked with a return to Southampton in the ongoing window. And the Hammers could sanction a departure for Ings as they are closing in on landing Evan Ferguson. Ings’ potential move to Southampton might change their stance on Archer and facilitate a move to Leeds.
Now with less than 36 hours remaining in the window, clubs will have to act quickly. Archer, who has previous experience of playing in the Championship, could boost Leeds‘ hopes if they manage to land him.
The Potential Solution for Leeds
- Leeds United are in the race for automatic promotion from the Championship.
- They are targeting a forward to strengthen their attacking options.
- Cameron Archer, the Southampton striker, has been their top target.
- Archer has failed to impress at Southampton, and the Saints are considering signing a new forward.
- Danny Ings’ potential move from West Ham to Southampton could change their stance on Archer and open the door for a loan move to Leeds.

In conclusion, Leeds United‘s pursuit of their top attacking target, Cameron Archer, could be revived in the final hours of the transfer window. The potential departure of Danny Ings from West Ham to Southampton might be the key to unlocking Archer’s loan move to Leeds, which could boost their promotion hopes.
