The South American media continues to feed the rumours which link Tottenham Hotspur defender Juan Foyth to a Leeds United move.

Just yesterday, we’ve covered a report from Radio La Red’s journalist Nicolas Bozza where he was sure the defender was joining the Elland Road side.

Now it’s interesting how Olé, the biggest sports newspapers in Argentina, brought two stories on this chase in the past 24 hours.

They first had an article on their website saying Leeds United already have a verbal agreement to sign Foyth on a one-year loan deal.

Today, they bring a shorter story on their printed edition. They say Marcelo Bielsa is ‘about to close’ a deal for the 22-year-old.

The fact that Marcelo Bielsa is signing an Argentine player makes things a lot bigger in his home country.

So it’s still a really hard to know if the local media are getting exclusives on this chase or if they’re just excited with the signing.
