Leeds boss Daniel Farke says the club needs to “add some quality” to their attacking options in order to be competitive in the Premier League.<\/b><\/p>\n
Lukas Nmecha has been the only attacking option the Whites have brought in so far this summer, while Mateo Joseph and Patrick Bamford are set to leave and Manor Solomon – who spent last season on loan from Tottenham<\/a> – has an uncertain future.<\/p>\n “We are not naive,” Farke said after Saturday’s 1-1 pre-season draw against Villarreal. “We know that even in comparison to our Championship offence you could say that we are not much improved. <\/p>\n “We know in the offence we are not ready for Premier League level. We’ve proven we can be ready for one game and for that I am not too concerned at the moment as it stands.<\/p>\n “I know especially with the offence, in the last bit you can add some quality. Of course as a manager you want all the players available on the first day of pre-season and to have training sessions with them because they need to adapt to the group and the principles.<\/p>\n “The shorter the time is to the first game the more difficult it is to integrate them and make them fully ready and up to speed. <\/p>\n “For that we still have time. We know we need additions to that. I also know we all together and our key people who are responsible for spending the money are trying everything to make these additions as quick as possible.<\/p>\n “We are two weeks away from the first game. I can’t guarantee that for the first game everything is really ready and we are fully equipped.<\/p>\n “We definitely have to make sure that latest after the first international break we have really a competitive squad for the Premier League.<\/p>\n “We are not anxious but fully aware we need to do something.”<\/p>\n
