Fulham signed Samuel Chukwueze and Kevin, and that gave Leeds hope of a deal.<\/p>\n<p>But <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leedsunited.news\/transfers\/why-leeds-united-failed-to-sign-fulham-forward-harry-wilson-as-details-of-collapse-revealed\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fulham pulled the plug on a move for Wilson at the final stage<\/a>.

Hull have a transfer embargo in place, meaning they could only sign players on free transfers or on loan deals.<\/p>\n<p>It appears then, that Leeds have let <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leedsunited.news\/tag\/darko-gyabi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gyabi<\/a> go on a free.

But since then, Gyabi has failed to make it at Leeds.<\/p>\n<p>For half of the three years Gyabi spent at Leeds, the midfielder was on loan at Plymouth. But relegation last season saw Gyabi return, when survival might have seen Gyabi remain with Argyle this summer.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"502\" height=\"842\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/1756796832_395_image.png\" alt=\"Screenshot of Darko Gyabi's Instagram message to Leeds after Hull move.\" class=\"wp-image-110494\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now at Hull, Gyabi posted a touching message.
