Bielsa and Orta’s £11.25m Leeds summer gamble

|

According to Tutto Mercato Web, Leeds are interested in Nahitan Nandez – an energetic midfielder from Uruguay.

Nandez plays in the middle of the park for the South American nation and was at last summer’s World Cup with the likes of Luis Suarez and Lucas Torreira.

Certainly, he has plenty appearing to go for him with him at Boca Juniors at the moment but would this be a risk from Marcelo Bielsa and Victor Orta?

According to Transfermarkt he is rated at £11.25m, and that would make him a significant investment of a signing in the summer.

Certainly, for Orta and Bielsa he would be a gamble given he also has no experience of football in our country but, at the same time, he looks a real player.

Tough and competitive, he’s a typical Uruguayan star and could add real steel and bite to our midfield.

A risk and a gamble, absolutely, but not every gamble goes wrong.
