Leeds United are keen on signing a new striker before the transfer window closes and Artem Dovbyk has emerged as an option.<\/strong><\/p>\n Daniel Farke got the Whites back to the Premier League<\/a> last season, but the goal is now to keep them there come May 2026.<\/p>\n With Patrick Bamford expected to leave Leeds<\/a> and Lukas Nmecha not ready to lead the line week in and week out, signing a new number nine is a priority.<\/p>\n According to Calciomercato<\/a> (30 July), 28-year-old Dovbyk could leave Roma a year after he signed for them.<\/p>\n He has not impressed since joining the Italian club and has even missed pre-season training due to an injury.<\/p>\n Leeds<\/a> have made contact to sign Dovbyk, but no official bid has been received by the Serie A giants.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Roma are looking for a fee north of \u00a334million if they are to sell the Ukraine international in the coming weeks. <\/p>\n Dovbyk is an ideal fit for Leeds United\u2019s needs as they return to the Premier League and signing him this summer is a priority. <\/p>\n At 28, the Ukrainian striker brings proven goal-scoring prowess, with 54 goals in 86 appearances for Dnipro and 17 goals in 45 games for Roma, despite a challenging debut season. <\/p>\n Dovybyk\u2019s career stats.<\/p>\n His physicality and clinical finishing, honed at Girona, suit Farke\u2019s high-energy, pressing system. <\/p>\n With Bamford and Mateo Joseph likely leaving, the Elland Road<\/a> outfit urgently need a reliable centre-forward. <\/p>\n Dovbyk\u2019s \u00a334million price tag is within Leeds\u2019 budget, especially after missing out on Igor Paixao. <\/p>\n His 11 goals in 36 international caps further highlight his quality. <\/p>\n Securing the Ukrainian\u2019s transfer would provide a Premier League-proven focal point, crucial for Leeds to avoid relegation.<\/p>\n![\"Patrick](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Patrick-Bamford-1024x575.jpg\")
