According to new reports, Leeds United are in early talks about bringing Glasgow Rangers player Glen Kamara to the Championship this summer.
Glen Kamara, who is he?
Kamara is a natural defensive midfielder who has been at Ibrox for the past four years after joining from Dundee FC in January 2019. However, despite being a regular feature over the past several seasons, there is a strong possibility that he will be leaving before the end of the current transfer window.
The Finland international made just 12 Scottish Premiership starts under Michael Beale last term and was limited to minutes having been brought on as a substitute on ten occasions, and as a result of him being so out of favour, Daniel Farke and the 49ers have been alerted to his potential availability.
The Yorkshire Evening Post’s Graham Smyth recently reported that the Whites had highlighted the 27-year-old as a “potential target” and he’s a player that chiefs have been “assessing in recent weeks”, though it sounds like their initial interest has now turned into something more solid if the following development is to be believed.
Are Leeds interested in signing Glen Kamara?
Leeds are “closing in” on signing Kamara in the summer ahead of the 2023/24 season, according to Football Insider. The LS11 club are in “advanced talks” with Rangers about a transfer for their star, and the sum is expected to be around £5 million.
The Light Blues veteran had been “on the radar” of ten unknown second-tier clubs, but it appears that the newly relegated side has beaten the fierce competition to recruit him.
Glen Kamara, how excellent is he?
Leeds will know that Kamara wasn’t given a fair chance to show what he was capable of at Rangers last season, but with plenty of potential on offer, Farke could be the ideal manager to help the midfielder reinvent himself and embark on the next chapter of his career should he sign on the dotted line in the weeks ahead.
The Tampere native has clocked up 20 goal contributions (11 assists and nine goals) during his time north of the border and is extremely calm and composed in possession having recorded an 89.4% pass success rate in the previous campaign, which was significantly higher than any of the regular starters at Elland Road.
The Glasgow club’s “monster,” as former manager Steven Gerrard dubbed him, has also been recognized for his international performances after being named Finland’s 2022 Football of the Year, demonstrating that he’s receiving well-deserved individual recognition for his displays for his homeland.
The Whites are reportedly in advanced talks to sign Newcastle United goalkeeper Karl Darlow, with the club making him their next priority target after completing the deal for Chelsea defender Ethan Ampadu, and if negotiations continue in the positive manner that they have so far, Kamara could be the next new face to follow in his footsteps.
