Leeds United Look to Secure Japanese Midfielder Ao Tanaka
Injury in Fortuna Dusseldorf Training
Japanese international midfielder Ao Tanaka, who has been linked with a move to Leeds United, suffered an injury in Fortuna Dusseldorf training on Tuesday.
Leeds United's Pursuit
Leeds United have made an offer to Fortuna Dusseldorf to sign Tanaka, according to German outlet Express.
Leeds' search for a new midfielder has led them to Tanaka, who has been a key player for Fortuna Dusseldorf and the Japanese national team.
Reported Offer
German newspaper BILD reports that Leeds United have tabled an offer of 26 million pounds to sign Tanaka.
This bid is lower than the 32 million pounds offer that Leeds made over the summer, which was rejected by Fortuna Dusseldorf.
Injury Concerns
The news of Tanaka's injury could complicate Leeds United's pursuit of the midfielder.
The extent of Tanaka's injury is not yet known, and it is unclear how long he will be out of action.
Competition for Tanaka
Leeds United are not the only club interested in signing Tanaka.
Other clubs, including Borussia Mönchengladbach and Eintracht Frankfurt, have also been linked with a move for the Japanese midfielder.
