Leed United are still holding firm interest in Club Brugge forward Noa Lang, but are yet to table a formal offer for the winger.

Leeds have one of the most desirable winger partnerships with Raphinha and Jack Harrison on either flank.

However, it would be a significant blow to the starting lineup if either were to be unavailable for an extended period, which means that the club need to focus on adding more strength in depth behind these two.

One winger that the club could end up signing is Club Brugge star Noa Lang, who joined the Belgian outfit after leaving Ajax last summer.

The Telegraph originally reported on Leeds’ interest in Lang after his 17 goals in all competitions capped off a title-winning season for Brugge.

A player that would add a lot of direct attacking talent to our side, it appears as though the club could pursue this move soon.

The Athletic’s Phil Hay is now reporting that Leeds’ interest is genuine despite the fact no offer has been made yet for him.

Lang is someone I really want to see through the doors this summer and I think he’s a doable signing.

While our two starters out wide are undroppable right now, we could do with an extra option that adds more goals.

Lang’s ability to drift inside and support his striker would be huge for us.

It’s a saga that is likely to drag on, but I really hope we can get a deal done for him, based on how he’s done.
