Leeds United are gearing up to submit a fresh bid for Fulham's talented striker Rodrigo Muniz after their initial £26m offer was turned down by the London club, according to TNT Sports Brasil. The Yorkshire outfit, keen to bolster their attacking options, see the 24-year-old Brazilian as a key target in their push to stay in the Premier League.
Muniz, who has been with Fulham since 2021, has shown flashes of brilliance in the English top flight, catching the attention of Leeds' recruitment team. Despite their substantial opening bid, Fulham are holding firm, reportedly valuing their forward higher due to his potential and recent performances.
Leeds, undeterred by the rejection, are now preparing an enhanced offer to secure Muniz’s signature before the transfer window closes.
The pursuit of Muniz reflects Leeds United’s ambition to strengthen their squad for the 2025/26 season.. Manager Daniel Farke is believed to be a strong admirer of Muniz’s physicality, work rate, and goal-scoring instincts, qualities that could complement the team’s attacking setup.
