According to The Athletic’s Phil Hay, Leeds United are indeed keen on Hull City winger Jarrod Bowen as head coach Marcelo Bielsa is a fan of his style, but they are unable to meet his £20 million valuation.
The Whites’ recruitment team once considered the forward, but the club finally went for Helder Costa.
The Portuguese arrived from Wolverhampton Wanderers on a season-long loan in the summer, but that will be followed by a permanent move at the end of the season, and Leeds are committed to a total fee of £16 million for a four-year contract which has already been finalised.
