Leeds United must act swiftly to hijack a deal for Plymouth Argyle’s forward Morgan Whittaker, who is reportedly on the verge of moving to Championship rivals Middlesbrough.
Leeds Eye Whittaker as Key Addition
Whittaker, 24, had an outstanding season last year, scoring 20 goals and providing 8 assists for Plymouth. Although the team is struggling this season, Whittaker has still contributed to three goals.
Leeds, currently top of the Championship, could use a player of his caliber to strengthen their attack and continue their push for Premier League promotion.
A £6 Million Deal for Whittaker
Middlesbrough has already made a £6 million bid for the striker, which has been accepted. With the winter transfer window closing soon, Leeds United must move fast if they want to bring Whittaker to Elland Road.
The Whites have been linked to other attacking players, but securing Whittaker would be a real coup, given his proven ability in the Championship.
Leeds’ Chance for Premier League Glory
The chance to play in the Premier League could be a big factor in tempting Whittaker to Elland Road.
Leeds United could offer him that opportunity next season if they maintain their top spot. This could make all the difference, especially with competition from Middlesbrough.
With only ten days left in the transfer window, Leeds United must act now to ensure they don’t miss out on this potential signing.
Whittaker’s addition could be the key to securing automatic promotion and achieving Championship glory.
