On September 18th, we covered claims from Italy that Leeds United had made an offer for Erick Pulgar. The bid’s value was put at £10m and it wasn’t considered high enough to please Fiorentina.
The midfielder was described as being ‘non-transferable’, as far as Fiorentina are concerned, however, there was a big hint that stance could change in the face of a higher offer.
Monday’s edition La Nazione, a newspaper close to the Serie A club, reports Leeds United are ‘serious’ about signing Pulgar and now ‘preparing an offer’, which would be their second.
There’s a possibility Marcelo Bielsa’s side see Pulgar as a back-up option in case they can’t 
get a deal for Udinese’s Rodrigo De Paul over the line. They’re not identical players, but had similar roles for their clubs last season.
La Nazione don’t dismiss the chance of €15m being successful.
