17 November 2025 19:30, UK <\/p>\n<p><strong>Daniel Farke is in desperate need of more attackers if Leeds United are to survive the battle against Premier League relegation.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With just 11 points from their first 11 games of the 2025-26 campaign, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/orourke-alarm-bells-are-ringing-at-leeds-this-is-when-daniel-farke-could-be-sacked\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Farke is under growing pressure as Leeds boss<\/a>, and the team\u2019s run of games get no easier after losing to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/nottingham-forest\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nottingham Forest<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Despite spending over \u00a3100million on transfers during the summer transfer window, the Whites have a real weakness through the middle, with neither <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/dominic-calvert-lewin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dominic Calvert-Lewin<\/a> nor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/lukas-nmecha\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lukas Nmecha<\/a> impressing.<\/p>\n<p><a

<strong>Football Insider<\/strong> understands that, ahead of January, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/leeds-uniteds-number-one-january-signing-priority-revealed\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Leeds\u2019 priority is to sign a winger<\/a>, and with that in mind, here are three players that could make the switch to West Yorkshire.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\"

href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/daizen-maeda-could-join-premier-league-club-in-january-he-wants-to-quit-celtic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Daizen Maeda is looking to leave Celtic<\/a>, as drama continues to unfold in Scotland.<\/p>\n<p>Elland Road could provide an easy exit route for the forward, and with his international teammate, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/ao-tanaka\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ao Tanaka<\/a> already at the club, he might have had some whispers in his ear over the last couple of weeks.<\/p>\n<p>MORE FOOTBALL INSIDER STORIES<\/p>\n<p>With 33 goal and 11 assists in all competitions last season, Maeda could thrive in the Premier League, but it the club might prefer someone who is already proven in England.<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan Rowe<\/p>\n<p>Although <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/jonathan-rowe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jonathan Rowe<\/a> made a name for himself in the Championship, multiple Premier League clubs were keeping tabs on the 22-year-old before his failed move to Marseille in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>He lasted just one season before falling out with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/roberto-de-zerbi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Roberto De Zerbi<\/a>, and while he only joined new club Bologna during the summer, his impact has not been what the youngster would have hoped.<\/p>\n<p>Now, he is set to be sidelined for a few weeks, but once the January transfer window, he could be ready and available for Leeds to take a chance on him. They\u2019ve been linked with him before.<\/p>\n<p>Harry Wilson<\/p>\n<p>The Whites tried incredibly hard to sign <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/harry-wilson\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Harry Wilson<\/a> just a couple of months ago, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/fulham\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fulham<\/a> were unwilling to let the Welshman go. Now, there is talk of a new contract for the winger.<\/p>\n<p>He has been given more opportunities by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/marco-silva\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marco Silva<\/a> this season, having been able to keep fit for much longer than normal, but he is still fighting for his spot in the starting lineup.<\/p>\n<p>Should Farke\u2019s side go back into his signature, multiple of his international teammates would be there to welcome him, including Rodon, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/dan-james\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dan James<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/ethan-ampadu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ethan Ampadu<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/karl-darlow\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Karl Darlow<\/a>.
