Leeds United are close to sealing their place in the Premier League for next season, and they’ve already started talks with one Wolves star ahead of a possible move, according to journalist Liam Keen.
Daniel Farke has done a phenomenal job this season, with many predicting them to go down following their promotion to the Premier League.
The Yorkshire club currently sit in 15th place with just five games remaining, and they now have an eight-point gap ahead of Tottenham after winning two games on the bounce.
Leeds are currently unbeaten in their previous four, and with a comfortable cushion, they can start to plan for the summer transfer window with the assumption that they will be a Premier League club.

Leeds Open Talks to Sign Wolves Star
According to journalist Liam Keen, Leeds have opened talks with intermediaries over a move for Wolves defender Ladislav Krejci ahead of the summer transfer window.
Leeds have a strong interest in the centre-back, and with Wolves almost relegated from the Premier League, there could be a strong chance that he wants to head through the exit door later this year.
Interest is growing in Krejci, and it appears Leeds have already made the first move to try to secure his signature heading into the 2026/2027 campaign.
Krjeci Could be Smart Addition for Leeds
Krejci could be a smart addition for Leeds, as long as they secure his signature for a reasonable fee.
David Ornstein previously reported that Wolves are set to pay £26m overall for the signing of Krejci, who joined Wolves on loan with an option to buy, which was likely to be triggered through appearances.
Krejci has played at centre-back and in midfield during his time with Wolves this season, which could make him a useful asset to Farke for next term.
His versatility and physicality will suit what Farke is looking for, and Leeds could get ahead of rivals in the race by making an early move.
