Leeds eye Brazil star as Marseille plan January sales

Daniel Farke's side head into the weekend 7th in the table, but with just eight goals scored from six games played, and that could need a remedy in the winter market

Marseille forward Igor Paixao has emerged as an option, with the Ligue 1 giants under major financial pressure, and Football Insider claim a bid could be tabled at the start of 2027.

Leeds have previously made offers for the 26-year-old, including a rumoured rejected bid over the summer, but the issues at Marseille has now changed their stance over a sale.

Paixao scored 12 goals in all competitions, but with a contract up until June 2030, Marseille will demand in the region of £40M to consider a sale.
