One day, Leeds United will hope to take the stage at the FIFA Club World Cup.
Given that this endeavor is undoubtedly long-term, the goal of Paraag Marathe is clear: get Leeds into Europe.
It will take time, but after a great season, Daniel Farke must first maintain Leeds in the Premier League.
Although the task will be difficult, Leeds has all the resources necessary to finish it because they are planning to spend £150 million.
Due to his notable absence from the Club World Cup, a key target appears to be available now.
Despite Leeds United’s desire, James McAtee was left out of the FIFA Club World Cup.
Given the likelihood that the Man City midfielder will depart, Leeds has James McAtee on their radar this summer.
After making an impression in his few minutes at Manchester, McAtee is a highly sought-after midfield player, and Leeds is one of 20 clubs interested in him.
Although a deal is obviously not going to be simple, the Whites will be eager to sign the 22-year-old, who is valued at £35 million.
With regard to the Club World Cup, a recent update indicates that McAtee’s tenure under Pep Guardiola is officially gone.
McAtee’s time with City is coming to an end as he will be playing for the England under-21s instead of City in the thrilling competition this summer.
