The latest Leeds United transfer news: every confirmed deal in the 2026/27 window, who they’re linked with, and the odds on what happens next. Updated 7 September 2026.
Leeds have spent this window fixing the two positions that undermined last season: a club-record £40m on James Trafford to settle the goalkeeping question, and £34m on Tarik Muharemović to replace the departed Pascal Struijk at centre-back.
The housekeeping turned busy at the death: Michael Zetterer arrived as Lucas Perri left for Torino, deadline day added Melvin Bard and Jean-Mattéo Bahoya on loan, and Wilfried Gnonto and Largie Ramazani went the other way on loans of their own. The Leeds United transfer news below is the full record of the window.
