Leeds United transfer rumours as Whites 'eye up' Ferencvaros striker Ryan Mmaee

Here are your latest Leeds United transfer rumours for Thursday, April 6.

Leeds United 'eye up' Ferencvaros striker Ryan Mmaee

Leeds United are reportedly interested in Ferencvaros striker Ryan Mmaee, according to Football Insider.

They report that Leeds are plotting to sign the Moroccan forward in the upcoming summer transfer window but that it depends on whether the Whites remain in the Premier League next term. That of course took a big step in the right direction with Tuesday night's victory over Nottingham Forest, a win that saw Javi Gracia's side move up to 13th in the table.

It is thought that Leeds have been 'regularly scouting' Mmaee as they look to provide further strike options to the likes of Patrick Bamford, Georginio Rutter and Rodrigo. The 25-year-old has found the back of the net 12 times in 31 appearances for Ferencvaros this season.

Whites 'keen' on Mateo Retegui

Elsewhere, Italian journalist Ciro Venerato has reported that Leeds are are 'keen' on signing Tigre and Italy striker Mateo Retegui this summer.

It is reported that Retegui is also being chased by AC Milan, Inter Milan and Eintracht Frankfurt as well as Leeds. The 23-year-old may not be a hugely popular name among most English football fans, but Italy manager Roberto Mancini has certainly seen something in the attacker after he was picked for the national squad during the recent international break.

The centre-forward, who is currently on loan at Tigre from Boca Juniors, has scored seven times in 10 appearances for the Argentinian side.
