Leeds United midfielder Samuel Saiz is thought to be on the radar of La Liga sides Valencia and Huesca, for a potential summer transfer.

According to El Gol Digital, Valencia are looking for a replacement for Paris Saint-Germain bound winger Goncalo Guedes, with Saiz one of the top targets.

The 27-year-old versatile forward, who joined the ranks at Elland Road in July 2017, scored eight goals in 13 appearances in all competitions for the Lilywhites last season.

The Spain Under-19 international has become somewhat of a crowd favourite since signing for Leeds, which means the sale of Saiz could cause some unrest.

Marcelo Bielsa has got the current Lilywhites squad playing some very attractive, high scoring football this season, with Leeds United currently sat top of the Championship table.

The Argentine manager has guided his new look side to four wins a draw so far, with Samuel Saiz playing a large role, having feature in all the league matches this campaign.

The Verdict

Samuel Saiz would be a big loss to Leeds United, with the Lilywhites relying on the creativity of the versatile midfielder.

Marcelo Bielsa’s side have impressed this season, and deservedly sit top of the table, albeit on goal difference ahead of Tony Pulis’ Middlesbrough.

The Spanish midfielder would be a strong addition to both Valencia, who finished fourth in La Liga last season, and Huesca, Saiz’s former club, but Leeds must keep hold of him if they are to succeed this season.
