Leeds United are on the cusp of finally returning to the Barclay’s Premier League for the first time since 2004. Leeds are currently in third place, chasing behind front-runners Brighton and Newcastle for the two automatic promotion places. Third place is great, but they will be desperate to try and avoid the playoffs at all costs. Third place rarely counts for very much when the promotion playoffs begin. They are quite a ways back at a seven point deficit, so it will take something pretty extraordinary to do it. Here are some signings that would help them reach the top two.
1. Angel Rangel
One area in which Leeds could do with a little bit of strengthening is at right back. So Garry Monk could swoop for a former player and teammate in right back Angel Rangel, who did not start at the weekend for the Swans. Rangel provides a solid presence and can go forward into the attack very well.
