Leeds United won’t bid for RB Salzburg midfielder Mohamed Camara as things stands, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The Whites have been heavily linked with a move for Camara in recent weeks, with an outlet in Austria going as far as saying a big-money transfer was ‘imminent’.

Leeds reportedly made a breakthrough in talks over the weekend in a deal that would have cost around £30m with bonuses.

However, it seems as if RB Leipzig’s Tyler Adams will be the man to arrive at Elland Road, according to Romano, after a total £20m fee was ‘100% agreed’.

The Latest: Romano’s update

Romano took to Twitter on Monday evening to provide updates on both Adams and Camara.

He claimed that a move for Adams was ‘done and sealed’, adding that ‘if nothing changes in the coming weeks, Leeds won’t bid for midfielder Camara’.

The Verdict: Both needed?

Kalvin Phillips is now officially a Manchester City player, so you'd expect Adams will come in and fill the void left by the boyhood Leeds fan.

However, Jesse Marsch will have just Adams and fellow summer signing Marc Roca as senior defensive midfielders, so you could make an argument that Camara is also needed at Elland Road.

Manchester Evening News podcaster Conor McGilligan believes Camara is already ‘on KP’s level’, so having options of Adams, Roca and Camara may well prove to be smart business, but it looks as if a move isn’t ‘imminent’ as reported over the weekend.
