£2million fee likely to win race: Leeds must join Championship trio in race for Newcastle star

Antonsson should go, Wood needs back-up

Scoring just three goals for Leeds and failing to feature for the Yorkshire giants since January, Marcus Antonsson should be offloaded in the foreseeable future by Christiansen.

Despite the signing of Caleb Ekuban, Leeds should add to their strikeforce if they sell Antonsson and signing Murphy could replace the Swede.

That would provide Christiansen with two top-class strikers in the final third that are both proven Championship goalscorers, taking a massive leap towards the Premier League.

In other Leeds transfer news, Rangers must sign this reportedly available senior Whites ace in order to boost their chances of catching Celtic.
