Here are the latest Leeds United headlines on Thursday, June 29.
AC Milan 'make Luis Sinisterra enquiry'
Although he endured something of a stop-start season last year thanks to a series of injuries, Luis Sinisterra's bright showings in a Leeds United shirt won him plenty of admirers and it would appear that transfer interest in the Colombian winger is starting to heat up.
Sinisterra was able to net seven goals in his 22 appearances last term following his €25million transfer from Feyenoord and according to Tuttomercato, AC Milan are one of several clubs who have got in touch with Leeds in order to enquire over a price tag for the 24.-year-old.
The report adds that Leeds have not yet had any formal offers for the winger, but would look to get back the €25million they paid for the player in any deal this summer.

New head coach hint emerges with candidate's fresh talks for new job
Confirmation of Leeds United’s next head coach is yet to land, but a meaningful steer on who it won’t be has emerged in France. Patrick Vieira, who interviewed for the position in London last week, is now reportedly the favourite to take charge at Strasbourg in Ligue 1.
Scott Parker is also understood to have met with chairman-elect Paraag Marathe and chief executive Angus Kinnear to discuss the vacancy, but it is Daniel Farke claiming all the headlines. As the wait for EFL ratification of 49ers Enterprises’ takeover goes on, anxiety around installing Sam Allardyce’s replacement for the start of pre-season has grown.
It would seem though, based on reports in France, Vieira will not be the man in the dugout. On Wednesday night, L’Equipe suggested Vieira was at the front of a three-man shortlist for the Stade de la Meinau job.
What we know about next season's kit as new sponsor confirmed
Leeds United unveiled their new principal sponsor on Thursday morning as they prepare for the start of the new Championship campaign. Nationwide technology company BOXT, which is based in Leeds, will feature front and centre on Leeds’ shirts this season, replacing gambling organisation SBOTOP.
Leeds have partnered up with BOXT before and the company’s logo seems to give us more of an idea about what the Whites’ 2023-24 kit will look like. Leeds are still to unveil their kits for the upcoming campaign, but it’s something they will look to do sooner rather than later as the season draws closer.
With that in mind, here’s what we know about the new Leeds kit.
