At the weekend, Belgian journalist Sacha Tavolieri reported Brentford have joined Leeds United in the race for Royale Union Saint-Gilloise’s Noah Sadiki.
The midfielder was an integral part of the Jupiler Pro League side’s starting lineup last season. He played 4,680 minutes from 55 games, managing two goals and six assists in the process, and his performances have attracted interest from England.
Sud Info focus on Leeds United and Brentford interest in the 20-year-old and their efforts to try and sign him this summer.
Both Daniel Farke’s side and the Bees have ‘taken action by submitting concrete offers’ to the Belgian club.
The report makes it clear it’s their own information and states the Whites, who secured promotion to the Premier League, have proposed €13m.
Brentford, on the other hand, have offered €2m more than Leeds. The proposals made by the Premier League duo haven’t convinced Royale Union Saint-Gilloise.
The Belgium-born DR Congo international has a contract lasting until 2027, and Sud Info states his club are requesting €20m to sanction a move. They feel the figure is justified taking into his age and time left on his contract.
Leeds United and Brentford have to raise their proposals by €7m and €5m respectively to meet Royale Union Saint-Gilloise’s request.
