Leeds United have been linked with a move for Gustavo Hamer in the past and could reignite their interest in the player in January.
According to Football insiderthey are certainly interested in the 28-year-old Dutch midfielder, and it remains to be seen whether they can sign him in the coming weeks. They could use more quality and depth in the middle of the park and Hamer would be the ideal addition.
He has shown his quality at Sheffield United in the Championship, and the chance to move to the Premier League could be quite exciting for him. Leeds were also linked with Hamer in the summer.
Leeds could use Gustavo Hamer
Leeds have started the season poorly and it looks like they will bounce back strongly in the second half of the season. They need quality players to get their season back on track. Signing the 28-year-old midfielder could be ideal. He will add goals and creativity to the side. Hamer scored ten goals and had eight assists in all competitions last season.
Pete O’Rourke told Football Insider: “I think they will certainly always be interested in someone like Gustavo Hamer.
“He’s a top player, one of the best players in the Championship. He’s been on Leeds’ radar before.”
“Whether Leeds would be willing to spend the big money that Sheffield United would demand for Hamer remains to be seen.
“So yeah, he’s someone Leeds have looked at in the past.
“I don’t think he’s at the top of their priority list at the moment. There are probably other players ahead of him, but if he doesn’t move in January I’m sure there will be clubs looking at him next summer.”
Can Leeds sign Hamer?
It will be interesting to see if Leeds make an offer to sign the player in the coming weeks. They need more depth in the middle of the park. Ideally, they should add more quality in the final third as well.
Meanwhile, the Blades will not want to lose a key player in the middle of the season, and Leeds may have to pay a premium to get the deal done.
