Sky Sports: Leeds "interested" in signing £6m "machine" who Liverpool love

Leeds United are “interested” in signing a £6m “machine” who Liverpool officials were recently impressed by.

Leeds return to the top of the Championship with 2-0 win over Norwich

The Whites returned to the top of the Championship table on Wednesday evening, with a 2-0 win over Norwich City at Elland Road.

Manor Solomon and Dan James both scored and provided an assist in the midweek victory, with attention now turning to Monday’s crucial trip to promotion rivals Burnley.

Daniel Farke’s side are unbeaten in their last 11 games in all competitions and are yet to add to their squad in the January transfer window.

The German’s message for new signings has been clear all month and was reemphasised in the week, where he said: “We stay awake in the market but we are not in panic mode.”

One journalist thinks a move will go through.

ByCharlie Smith Jan 23, 2025

Some players who have been linked with moves to Elland Road include Aston Villa attacking midfielder Emiliano Buendia and striker Willem Geubbels from Swiss side FC St. Gallen. However, additions at the back could also be on the agenda, especially with Pascal Struijk currently sidelined with a hamstring injury.

Leeds interested in signing £6m machine – Sky Sports

According to Sky Sports reporter Philipp Hinze, Leeds are “interested” in signing Nordsjaelland left-back Daniel Svensson. However, Red Bull owned RB Leipzig are also keen on the Sweden international, who is valued at up to €7m (£6m).

“Daniel Svensson is on the list of RB Leipzig. 22-year-old Swede, currently under contract with Nordsjaelland. Left-back, 1.83m tall. Also interesting for the summer. Initial loose talks have taken place. Fits the LV profile. Not hot yet. Realistic price: €6-7 million. Leeds is also interested in the player.”

Svensson is 22 years of age and has made more than 150 appearances for Nordsjaelland over the last four years, 19 of which have come during the current campaign. He also has experience of playing in central midfield and as a left midfielder, so he could be a shrewd addition for the Whites.

Svensson has also been catching the eye of some Premier League giants, with Arsenal and Manchester City scouting the player and Liverpool chiefs being left impressed after they watched the full-back.

Former teammate Jeppe Tverskov also previously hailed Svensson, labelling him as a “machine”: “Sometimes, you see that if you can do a bit of everything, you end up being a reserve. But [Svensson] doesn’t because he is so good.

“He is a machine. He has a strong body and can run a lot. During the time when we played almost every three days, there were many who played many minutes. The only difference was that, in every eternal fight, he had 13 kilometers in him. It is very impressive.”

Leeds’ current first-choice left-back, Junior Firpo, is out of contract at Elland Road in the summer, and there are no immediate signs of a new deal, so perhaps the 49ers and Farke view Svensson as a potential replacement for the Spaniard.

Heather Knight will miss England’s opening match of the Commonwealth Games, against Sri Lanka on Saturday, with a hip injury.Knight, the England captain, suffered the injury during the first T20I against South Africa on July 21 and subsequently missed the remaining two matches of that series, which her side won in her absence.Knight is hopeful of being fit for England’s second game, against South Africa on Tuesday.That means Nat Sciver, Knight’s deputy, will captain England on their maiden appearance at the Commonwealth Games.England swept the T20I leg 3-0 in their multi-format series against South Africa, which the hosts won by 14 points to two, having also won all three ODIs and drawn the Test match.They managed comfortably in Knight’s absence, winning the second T20I by six wickets with six balls remaining, Sciver, the stand-in captain on both occasions, top-scoring for England with 47 alongside Danni Wyatt’s 24-ball 39 as England overhauled a target of 149.Related

In the final match, they promoted 17-year-old Alice Capsey, playing just her second international match and batting for the first time, to No. 3 when opener Sophia Dunkley fell for a first-ball duck. Capsey impressed with 25 off 17 balls, which included four consecutive fours, and spinner Sophie Ecclestone helped seal a 38-run victory with her unbeaten 33 off just 12 before taking 2 for 24.Speaking before being ruled out of the Games opener, Knight said she believed her side would take a “massive amount of confidence” from their performances in the South Africa series.”The main thing is we take that same mindset into a big world event, we take what we’ve done so well and perform it under pressure,” Knight said. “You know that if you don’t start well in those sorts of events you can be under the pump so it’s so important that what we’ve done, we build on and we continue to have that mindset.”There’s still ways I think we can improve and I’d love to see us piece it all together in a big world event.”Capsey is one of two 17-year-olds in the England squad, along with left-arm seamer Freya Kemp, who took two wickets on debut in their last ODI bowling alongside another newcomer to the bowling ranks, 20-year-old quick Issy Wong.”It’s really exciting,” Knight said. “The young girls have really added something to the squad. They’ve added that energy, that rawness, that fearlessness and for us older girls it’s keeping us young and keeping us excited.”I’m loving being part of the early stage of their careers and trying to help as much as I can and just let them loose and give them the confidence to do what they do and show off. I think we’ve got that nice combination of excited youth and hopefully a few wise old heads as well.”

Southampton now lining up late bid to sign new £390k-p/y forward for Juric

Southampton are now pushing to sign a new forward before the transfer window closes, and have identified an EFL star as their main focus as they look to bolster their ranks.

Southampton improving under Juric

Since the sacking of Russell Martin and subsequent arrival of Ivan Juric, Southampton have undoubtedly improved, but have failed to pick up the results to show for it. The Saints remain rooted to the bottom of the Premier League with just one win to their name all season, and have picked up just six points, none of those under their new manager.

However, there have been signs of progress, with the south coast side having been by far the better side against Manchester United only to be stung by a late hat-trick from Amad Diallo to leave Old Trafford with nothing.

They continue to struggle at both ends of the pitch, scoring the fewest goals in the Premier League this campaign while also conceding the second most, a combination that is only likely to end one way for the St Mary’s side.

With the club now likely resigned to spending next season in the Championship, they have seen strong interest in star man Tyler Dibling this winter, and are likely to lose the talented forward in the not-so-distant future amid interest from Tottenham and others.

Now, perhaps in preparation for that fact, they are looking to raid the Championship once more ahead of their potential return to England’s second tier.

Southampton lining up move for Cardiff City star

That comes as Football Insider reveal that Southampton are one of four sides chasing a late move to sign Cardiff City forward Ollie Tanner this month.

Tanner has impressed in England’s second tier so far this season, grabbing two goals and two assists, while his versatility has seen him play on both sides of attack.

He has always been talented, with one former coach dubbing him “special” and “the best I ever worked with”, something that tempted Tottenham into making an offer to sign him, only for Cardiff to beat them to the punch.

And his performances this season have reportedly caught the eye, with Leeds United, Burnley, Southampton and Leicester all on his tail as they plot a late move for the 22-year-old.

Southampton must sell a flop who earns more than Walker-Peters & Fernandes

Ivan Juric could offload a number of Southampton duds this January.

When quizzed, Cardiff boss Omer Riza played down the links, explaining: “No. Ollie’s a young lad, he’s one of ours and he’s doing really well. We need him, like we need all the other players in our team, and he’s doing well. He’s focused on doing his job at Cardiff and that’s it, really.”

And with two and a half years left to run on his £7,500 a week deal in Wales, any deal looks difficult at this late stage, with Cardiff also looking to stave off relegation themselves. However, several clubs are willing to try, and Southampton appear to be among them.

Birmingham Phoenix have signed Ben Dwarshuis as an overseas player after Adam Milne was ruled out of the Hundred with an Achilles injury.Milne was one of Phoenix’s star performers as the reached the final of the first edition of the competition, finishing joint-top of the wicket-takers’ list, with 12, and the best economy (0.95 runs per ball) of any bowler.The fast bowler last played at the IPL in March, and he was unable to feature in New Zealand’s white-ball tour of Europe due to the same problem.Related

Dwarshuis, the Australia left-armer who won his first cap in Pakistan earlier this year, has previously played county cricket for Worcestershire.He is due to arrive in the UK on Monday and will be available for the second half of the group stage, with Phoenix currently sitting on four points from three games.”We’re really pleased to be able to recruit such an experienced fast bowler in Ben,” Craig Flindall, Birmingham Phoenix general manager, said. “Naturally, we’re disappointed that Adam couldn’t feature for us this year, but Ben will add a left-arm option to our exciting group.”

Haynes reflects on 'sliding doors' moment; says 'it's nice to walk away on my own terms'

Says she “wasn’t that excited” about the upcoming cricket and is happy to finish off with a Commonwealth gold medal

As she called time on her international career, Rachael Haynes reflected on the “sliding doors” moment where her prolific second phase with Australia nearly didn’t happen.After being dropped in 2013 Haynes was struggling to combine playing at domestic level and working and in 2016 seriously considered walking away from the sport. However, less than a year later she was recalled to the Australia side for a tour of New Zealand – with two days’ notice – and the rest his history.Related

Though she had scored 98 on Test debut against England in 2009 and had enjoyed moments of success in the ODI side – most notably the 2013 World Cup where she made 273 runs at 45.50 – during the first stage of her career she averaged 31.28 compared to 45.07 following the 2017 recall.In T20Is the rise was even more significant, going from an average of 17.15 and strike rate of 99.11 to 33.00 with a strike rate of 126.15.”I honestly thought that perhaps I was going to walk away from the game at that time,” Haynes said speaking outside the SCG. “But I had a lot of people get behind me and support me through that period and give me another chance and it’s changed my life and I’m very grateful.”It’s always tough being dropped from any side as an athlete, because you’re getting told you’re no longer required to do something that you love, so it definitely takes the wind out of your sails. But somewhere along the way, I found my love for the game again and I wanted to give it one last crack.”It was one of those sliding doors moments where there was a couple of injuries at the time in the team and I was in the right place at the right time. And the thing that I was proud of was that I stayed ready for that moment too. I was able to step into it when it did come.”While Haynes believes she could have pushed through to next year’s T20 World Cup in South Africa where Australia will defend the title, it was a feeling that she had lost a little of the drive that typified her comeback tale that made her feel it was the right time to retire.”I had the opportunity to pause and reflect after Commonwealth Games. Looking ahead, knowing it’s a lot of cricket coming up and probably the thing that stood out for me was that I wasn’t that excited about getting ready and that’s probably the first time in my career that I felt like that,” she said.Rachael Haynes won the ODI World Cup and the Commonwealth gold in her farewell year•ICC via Getty

“I recognised that maybe it was a sign to step away. Perhaps I could have gone on and made it through to the T20 World Cup, but I suppose knowing how I was feeling, I didn’t think it was the right thing to do. In a lot of ways, it’s nice to walk away on my own terms with the experiences of success that I have. I’m very fortunate and to finish off with a gold medal is very special.”When asked to single out her best innings Haynes went for the half-century against Sri Lanka, in Perth, during the 2020 T20 World Cup when Australia were 10 for 3 with their tournament hanging by a thread following the defeat to India in Sydney. It was a performance that summed up Haynes: being there as a cool head in the toughest moments.”It probably wasn’t as clean as I hit the ball or anything like that, but it was probably the most important innings that I played,” she said. “I suppose as a player you always want to stand up when your team needs you. I’ve been fortunate at different stages I’ve been able to pull off some crucial innings for the team. That’ll definitely hold a place in my memories. But the most amazing thing is the success I’ve been able to enjoy over a long period of time with this group of players and the Australian team, and also with New South Wales too. It’s tough in some respects to walk away but I also know it’s the right time.”With uncertainty over when Meg Lanning will return, as vice-captain Haynes could have had the chance to captain Australia again. However, she is confident in the depth of leadership options available for whatever positions need to be filled in the coming months. Australia are not in action again until December when they tour India before facing Pakistan at home in January.”I don’t want to throw names out there, I don’t want to put anyone under too much pressure or anything,” she said. “One thing I will say, behind the scenes they have been preparing for this moment for a little while now so I think they’ve got plenty of options they can draw on. Comes down to whether they’re thinking short or long term. There are some fantastic leaders within that group who don’t necessarily have the titles at the moment. But I’m looking forward to seeing who that might be.”On a personal level, Haynes will play a final season for Sydney Thunder – she missed the previous tournament due to injury and border restrictions – then indicated she would take some time away but was hopeful of remaining involved in the sport.”I’ve been preparing for this moment for a long time,” she said. “I finished my MBA last year so I feel like I’m ready for that next chapter and what that looks like I’m not too sure. But I’m sure I’ll stay involved in cricket in some capacity.”I feel very fortunate I’ve been able to play through the professionalisation of the game and I can only see it continue to grow. And I’m looking forward to perhaps sitting in the stands now and watching the game.”
