Tuesday Morning Hot Links

Hello and welcome to Leeds Will Tear Us Apart. The Premier League is back this week.

Leeds United

• I’m pretty sure we talked about this last week, but Atalanta are interested in Fulham striker (and long-time Leeds link) Rodrigo Muniz and a deal is “on track.” Leeds’ £34.6 million second bid has been rejected by Fulham.

• If Leeds United want Leicester’s Bilal El Khannouss, they’re going to have to outbid Newcastle, who have had the worst summer transfer window of anyone in the Premier League.

• It’s official: In advance of their season opener at home to Everton on Monday, Everton will have Jack Grealish on loan.

• Leeds-linked Dominic Calvert-Lewin has fired his agent after continuing to find himself unemployed.

• Former Leeds Greats/loanees Charlie Crew (Doncaster Rovers) and Joe Gelhardt (Hull) made their EFL season debuts over the weekened.

Elsewhere

• Crystal Palace “have launched an attack” on UEFA over their demotion from the Europa League, and I do hope this is literal and also includes trebuchets and catapults. And now Spurs are trying to beat Arsenal for Palace’s Eberechi Eze.

• Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak is ready to force a move to Liverpool. Will Liverpool’s extreme makeover work?

• Nottingham Forest is “considering a move” for Manchester City’s James McAtee.

• BBC: How fresh is your favorite team?
