According to what was reported by TBR Football, several clubs are moving to sign Junior Firpo, former Barcelona full-back, who had an excellent season in the Championship with Leeds United. The 28-year-old's contract with the “Whites” expires at the end of this season, and everything suggests he will depart after four years at Elland Road.
Arriving from Barcelona in 2021 for around 15 million euros, Firpo was instrumental in Leeds’ promotion to the Premier League after two years in the English second division. Despite the Yorkshire club's willingness to renew the contract of the Dominican Republic international, the player seems determined to look around.
Leeds would be willing to keep him, but the player is considering alternative options. Everton, Crystal Palace, and West Ham are among the teams that have already had contact with his entourage, but there is also concrete interest from Italy and Spain.
In particular, Barcelona, who need reinforcements on the left flank, are reportedly considering bringing the player back. Milan, too, in the event of Theo Hernández’s departure, have set their sights on him. A return to Spain appears highly likely, with Real Betis and Atlético Madrid ready to enter the race.
