Leeds United was rocked by the news that Newcastle and Tottenham were planning aggressive transfer raids.

According to a report, Tottenham and Newcastle are both keeping an eye on a young player at Leeds United who is already being compared to a contemporary club icon.

At the first opportunity, Daniel Farke is expected to lead Leeds United back into the Premier League. Now sitting atop the Championship table, the Whites have managed to successfully ensnare Leicester City. Although Ipswich Town, in third position, is only one point behind the Whites and Foxes, Farke will be optimistic that he can guarantee a spot in the promotion playoffs.

This season, a number of Leeds’ best players have also been among their youngest.

The division’s standout player has undoubtedly been 22-year-old Crysencio Summerville, while 18-year-old Archie Gray has surprised everyone by playing both right-back and

in the middle of midfield.

Although Gray is expected to go for £100 million in the upcoming years, the news of today is about a younger player.

Ollie Pickles, a holding midfielder for Leeds, is predicted to be the next teenage sensation to break into the first team, according to talkSPORT.

But the report also says that Elland Road may not be the best place for him in the future.

Pickles, 16, has made frequent appearances for Leeds’ Under-18 team this season and has also played a key role in the team’s progress to the FA Youth Cup semifinals. Spurs and Newcastle are eager to sign him.

According to talkSPORT, Pickles

slated to enter Farke’s senior setup more quickly. It also reveals that he is being compared to the current club legend Kalvin Phillips, who was a standout player for the Whites from 2014 to 22.

Sadly for Leeds, though, Tottenham and Newcastle are keeping an eye on the team and are reportedly considering making a summer acquisition.

Any club that loses a rising young talent always has a bitter pill to swallow, especially if that talent is homegrown.

But Leeds experienced precisely that in January when Man City enticed Finlay Gorman, then 15 years old, to the Etihad.

Pickles might experience the same thing, and if Spurs bring him to North London, he’ll be the newest addition to their youthful recruiting class.

Alejo Veliz, Lucas Bergvall, and Ashley Phillips are among the players Tottenham has made moves for in

recent seasons in an effort to sign some of the most promising young players available.
