Leeds United all but relegated Wolves on Saturday afternoon with a 3-0 win, and now we could be looking to sign Ladislav Krejci.
The Whites are eight clear of the bottom three following victory over Wolves on Saturday. An emphatic first half once again proved the difference, before Dominic Calvert-Lewin made sure late on.
That result leaves Leeds on the brink of survival with five games to play, while Wolves will be relegated on Monday if West Ham avoid defeat.
Leeds United aim to pile Wolves misery on with Ladislav Krejci transfer interest
Not only are Leeds the latest side to hammer one of the final nails in the coffin for Wolves, but we could be poaching one of their best players too.
A report from the Express and Star’s Liam Keen reveals that Leeds are interested in signing Molineux centre-back Ladislav Krejci.
The Czech defender has been at the thick of action against United this season. In the away 3-1 win for Leeds, Krejci scored Wolves’ opener. And at Elland Road, nearly pulled a goal back when his header was miraculously saved by Karl Darlow, before going to ground by the might of Brenden Aaronson’s push, earning him a booking.
EXCL: Interest growing in Ladislav Krejci this summer with a move away from Wolves possible.

A left-footed defender, Krejci could aid Leeds’ lack of left-sided depth in the defence. Only Gabriel Gudmundsson and Pascal Struijk are left-footed defenders in our senior squad.
Leeds United definitely have to pursue Ladislav Krejci transfer this summer
When you look at how the 49ers conduct business, the term ‘market opportunity’ is common.
Wolves dropping down to the Championship with iffy finances means they’ll be selling players left and right. Krejci is one of the few that has looked a cut above Wolves’ current plight.
A left-sided centre-back makes perfect sense for us, with Struijk’s contract running down towards 2027. In fact, when I recently discussed the possibility of Leeds cashing in on the Dutchman, I recommended Krejci as an option.
He could be a very shrewd pickup for Leeds.
