Never getting the midfielder he wanted last summer or in January, Marcelo Bielsa could get Leeds United to rectify that in the summer.
His interest in Nahitan Nandez is nothing new, and it’s reiterated on Wednesday, as Cento Trentuno look at what the future has in store for the Uruguayan.
A key member of Cagliari’s team, the 25-year-old has a €36m release clause the Serie A side are still waiting for someone to trigger, and this summer could be the time when that happens.
With Leeds United exceeding most expectations this season, there will be a desire at Elland Road to keep the momentum going, meaning money could be spent.
It’s stated their interest ‘is a reality and is added to the still lively interest of Leeds’, who ‘aren’t the only club in the Premier League to have set their sights’ on the midfielder.
Who else isn’t stated, but the likes of Napoli, Inter and AS Roma are also mentioned.
Leeds’ Premier League money is certainly an advantage, as is their ability to offer a different challenge to that of Serie A, and it’s stated ‘it seems difficult for Lazio to reach the figures’ that would be a part of any deal for the Cagliari man.
Good news for Marcelo Bielsa, then.
