Leeds United fans taken aback by Kieffer Moore signing news

Thu 13 June 2024 16:10, UK

Leeds United fans are divided after a summer transfer move to sign Bournemouth striker Kieffer Moore was mooted.

The Yorkshire Evening Post listed ten players who could be available for discounted prices this summer, with the 31-year-old Welshman named among them.

Moore joined Ipswich Town on loan in January and helped fire them to promotion, scoring seven goals in 18 Championship appearances and has racked up 43 caps for Wales.

Leeds’ forwards Joel Piroe and Patrick Bamford found the net 21 times in 78 games between them, a rate of one goal every 3.7, compared to Moore’s average of one in every 2.6.

Leeds United fans split as Kieffer Moore transfer mooted

Fans at Elland Road have been split by the suggestion of a move to sign the striker, with some labelling the deal “underwhelming”.

That list is a bit underwhelming is it really where Leeds are at?
Looks like a mid table championship side list of players, think we might aim a little higher hopefully

Would quite like to see Joseph lead the line with Piroe and Bamford in support. He's always put in a good shift when brought on and time to bring him forward to see if he's got it. Also like the thought of Alfie Gilchrist who's apparently a potential loan move.

You can discuss the pro and cons of all the players on all the lists but in the end it is imperative to find the best striker available. No goals, no wins.

Many, however, saw the positives, stating he “would be a great signing”.

Keiffer Moore be a great signing we should take a leaf out of Ipswich book and sign lots of strikers and atacking players so that we can bring them on and win tight games late on.Thats the reason there in Premier and were not.

Purely going off the picture, Kieffer Moore would be a great signing.

Kieffer Moore minimal fee and contract with Welsh team mates – would be big plus – proved what a handful he is at this level

Pure lump of a striker who scores goals at this level, much rather bring Moore on for the last 10 than Bamford 😂

I would welcome Luke Thomas but personally I don't think Leicester would look to do business, hes a great option for their squad depth.
Kiefer Moore is the epitemy of "championship shithouse' and I feel like we need a bit of that. I would only take him on a loan deal though.
