Opinion: Leeds United should make an attempt to sign Divock Origi

If Leeds United secure promotion to the Premier League, Marcelo Bielsa should consider signing a top-quality striker in the summer.

Patrick Bamford works extremely hard but it would be too risky to enter a season with him being the first-choice striker. Jean-Kevin Augustin is another player Bielsa admirers, but he hasn’t played enough for Leeds since joining in January. And doubts remain about whether Leeds would be interested to pay £17 million to sign him permanently.

Tyler Roberts is a good player but he is too injury prone. Therefore, signing a striker is a top priority.
