Leeds United have seemingly moved a step closer to signing Rodrigo Moreno, with Gianluca Di Marzio reporting that the forward is set for a medical after a £27 million fee was agreed.

There were encouraging signs for the Whites fans on Tuesday. Spanish outlet AS reported that Andrea Radrizzani and Victor Orta had both travelled to Spain to try and agree a fee for the 29-year-old.

And it appears that the pair have enjoyed a successful trip. According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Leeds are set to pay around €30 million for the Valencia star.

It has also been reported that Rodrigo’s medical has been scheduled.

TBR View: Moment Leeds fans have been waiting for

Leeds have made a quiet start to the transfer window. They have brought in a handful of exciting youngsters and ensured that Illan Meslier and Jack Harrison will stay for next season at least.

But the fans have been waiting for the club to kick into top gear as they look to bolster Marcelo Bielsa’s first-team squad.

Of course, the supporters will be trying to temper their excitement until an official announcement is made.

But it looks to be a very promising sign. And the fans will be hoping, if Rodrigo does join, he proves to be the first of many before the Whites kick off their Premier League campaign at Liverpool next month.
