Report – Newly Promoted Premier League Outfit Leeds United Enter Race For €8M-Rated Inter Milan Fringe Striker

Premier League newcomers Leeds United have reportedly joined the race for out-of-favor Inter Milan striker Mehdi Taremi.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Whites are ready to rival Besiktas and Fulham for his signature.

Inter Milan have put the 33-year-old up for sale but are still waiting for official bids.

Despite drumming up interest across Europe, Mehdi Taremi has yet to find a new club.

Meanwhile, the Nerazzurri are in a hurry as they hope to sign Ademola Lookman as soon as possible.

Besiktas are reportedly at the head of the queue. Yet, Taremi has several suitors in the Premier League.

Indeed, Fulham and West Ham United have shown interest.

However, Leeds could beat their domestic rivals to the punch.

Back to the top flight after one year, Daniel Farke’s men are keen to avoid another quick drop.

Therefore, they’re working around the clock on reinforcing their squad.

Taremi could be a valuable addition despite his underwhelming career at San Siro.
