Largie Ramazani: Valencia loanee could now save Leeds United millions this summer
Largie Ramazani’s form has exploded while on loan to Valencia CF which could help save Leeds United millions in transfer fees.
The winger was sent to the La Liga club during the summer transfer window, with his playing time expected to be reduced in the Premier League.
However, after a difficult start, which saw a muscle injury sideline him, he has now emerged as a top player for the club.
In recent weeks, his form has reached new heights, with Ramazani netting four times in his last six La Liga matches.
Below, Football Insider has explored how his return to Elland Road could impact Daniel Farke’s squad.
Largie Ramazani could become a vital player for Leeds United next season
According to Marca on 25 March, Ramazani is set to return to Elland Road in the summer, with the club not possessing an option to buy.
Leeds have been impressed by the attacker, and plan to give him a significant role next season.
| Largie Ramazani's La Liga stats this season | Per 90 minutes |
| Goals | 0.65 |
| Shots | 3.76 |
| xG | 0.62 |
| Assists | 0.13 |
| Chances created | 1.68 |
| Successful dribbles | 1.81 |
| Touches in opposition box | 4.92 |
This could save the Peacocks millions, especially if Ramazani keeps up his excellent run of form.
It is no secret that Leeds’ attack needs an overhaul in the summer if they stay in the Premier League, with the club struggling to score goals from open play.
Therefore, instead of paying a huge fee for a new winger, the 25-year-old could fill this role.
This would allow Leeds to direct funds elsewhere, potentially to a new striker.
However, it remains to be seen if Ramazani can continue his excellent form at Valencia until the end of the season or if this is simply just a purple patch.
What positions are Leeds set to target in the summer transfer window?
Football Insider recently revealed that Leeds may aim to sign a striker in the summer transfer window.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s recent drop in form has caused concern, with the England international struggling to find the net once again.
Criticism was previously directed towards Leeds for not signing a top striker upon their promotion, instead going solely for Calvert-Lewin.
While a purple patch from the former Everton star helped ease this, the attacker is now struggling once again.
Therefore, if their survival campaign is successful, Leeds are likely to target a striker, and hopefully end their woes up top once and for all.
