The closer we get to the end of the transfer window, the closer deals get.
However, whether they get over the line or not is the important part, and Leeds United’s chase of Facundo Colidio is heading in the right direction.
On Monday, it was reported by Sky Italia that the Championship side had overtaken Newcastle in the race for the young Argentine forward, and Gazzetta dello Sport are backing that up on Tuesday.
They explain how the sale of Colidio and George Puscas could bring Inter a nice chunk of money, with the former of the two ‘close to being transferred to Leeds’.
This suggests the final details are probably being worked out, allowing Marcelo Bielsa to strengthen his attack with a young and promising centre-forward.
The 19-year-old made 31 appearances across the Serie A side’s various youth teams last year, scoring 12 goals and assisting six times along the way.
He has also already featured for Argentina’s U20 side nine times, scoring three goals.
