Leeds United want to seal Krstovic transfer as striker shows class in Serie A…

Leeds United are reportedly keen to seal the signing of Montenegrin striker Nikola Krstovic, who has impressed in Serie A with Lecce. The 24-year-old forward has caught the eye with his physical presence, intelligent movement, and clinical finishing—attributes that make him a strong fit for Daniel Farke’s attacking setup at Elland Road.

 

Krstovic, who joined Lecce in 2023, adapted quickly to Italian football, notching key goals and becoming a focal point in Lecce’s front line. His ability to hold up play and bring teammates into the game, combined with a natural poacher’s instinct, has made him a standout performer in Italy’s top flight.

With Leeds pushing for a return to the Premier League after a strong Championship campaign, bolstering their attacking options is a clear priority. The Whites are said to view Krstovic as a long-term solution up front—capable of leading the line both in the Championship and at Premier League level.

 

Negotiations are reportedly underway, with Leeds hoping to beat competition from other European clubs. Krstovic’s proven quality and potential upside make him an attractive target, and the move would signal Leeds’ ambition as they look to rebuild with a blend of youth, experience, and international pedigree.
