Leeds United are now being strongly linked with a potential double transfer raid on Newcastle United this summer.
The newly-promoted side will need a busy summer to strengthen their squad ahead of what will likely be a highly challenging Premier League campaign.
Leeds were relegated a few years ago and all three newly-promoted teams went down from the top flight last season.
One experienced Premier League player being linked with Leeds is Newcastle’s Sean Longstaff, and now new reports claim Daniel Farke’s side could land Joe Willock from the Magpies as well.
Leeds to sign Newcastle duo?

Leeds fans will no doubt hope this experienced midfield duo can arrive at Elland Road, with their club also being linked with the likes of Kalvin Phillips.
Willock is a particularly underrated player who could surely strengthen most Premier League sides, even if he’s fallen down the pecking order in Eddie Howe’s squad in recent times.
It will be interesting to see if both of these targets can be secured soon, but LUFC surely won’t want to leave things too late.
