Leeds United quoted insane new Gus Hamer price tag after Sheffield United update
Leeds United continue to be linked to Sheffield United’s Gus Hamer following promotion to the Premier League.
Leeds United Eye Move for Sheffield United Midfielder Gustavo Hamer
Leeds United are preparing a summer swoop for Sheffield United midfielder Gustavo Hamer, reigniting a long-standing interest in the talented playmaker.
Hamer, 28, is widely expected to leave Bramall Lane following Sheffield United’s relegation from the Premier League. With the Blades looking to reshape their squad and balance their books, several of their top players are being made available—and Hamer is among the most sought-after.
Leeds United, still reeling from their own failure to secure promotion last season, are keen to bolster their midfield with proven Championship quality. Hamer fits the bill perfectly. The West Yorkshire club have tracked the Brazilian-born Dutch midfielder since his impressive spell at Coventry City, where he became one of the Championship’s standout performers. Despite interest at the time, Hamer eventually moved to Sheffield United in the summer of 2023.
Now, with Hamer back on the market, Leeds see a second chance to land a player they believe can help lead them back to the top flight.
A technically gifted and energetic midfielder, Hamer is known for his creativity, passing range, and eye for goal. His versatility in both attacking and deeper roles makes him a valuable asset for any side hoping to control games in midfield.
Leeds United manager Daniel Farke is believed to be a strong admirer of Hamer’s dynamic style, and the club’s recruitment team are pushing to make the deal happen early in the transfer window. However, they may face competition, with other Championship clubs—and potentially lower-tier Premier League sides—monitoring Hamer’s situation closely.
Sheffield United, while resigned to losing the player, are expected to demand a significant fee for one of their most consistent performers from last season.
The deal could mark a significant statement of intent from Leeds, who are aiming to rebuild and return stronger after missing out on promotion in dramatic fashion. Adding a proven Championship midfielder like Hamer would not only improve the squad’s quality but also send a clear message to their rivals: Leeds United mean business.
With the transfer window heating up, fans at Elland Road will be watching closely to see if this long-awaited move finally becomes a reality.
