Transfer interest is building around Niko Kovac, with Leeds understood to be weighing-up a move for the Lecce defender. While there has been no official bid as yet, the club may act swiftly if they decide to pursue the deal before the transfer window slams shut. Leeds have laid out their intentions, but valuation and timing remain under debate. Napoli and Atalanta are keeping tabs in case talks collapse or progress slows further. So far in this season, Leeds are conceding 1.5 goals a game (9 in 6), more than they'd like compared to the Premier League standard. The hope is Niko Kovac adds a bit of steel and helps make them tougher to break down. Lecce continue to be linked with Corrie Ndaba while Leeds are also rumoured to be tracking Aleksandar Mitrovic, Mateus Fernandes and Florentino Luis.
