Pundit Weighs in on Leeds United’s Interest in Wolves Defender Hugo BuenoCarlton Palmer, a football pundit, believes Hugo Bueno of Wolverhampton Wanderers would be a good addition to Leeds United.
However, he suggests Wolves may want to secure a replacement before letting Bueno leave.Bueno has attracted significant transfer interest this summer.
Norwich City’s loan offer was rejected by Wolves last month, and other clubs including Leeds, Celtic, and Feyenoord have shown interest in the 21-year-old Spanish defender.
While Wolves are reluctant to sell Bueno permanently, they might consider a loan deal.
However, Leeds may face disappointment as Bueno is reportedly keen on joining Celtic, attracted by the prospect of regular playing time and Champions League football.
Speaking to Football League World, Palmer stated that Bueno would be an exciting signing for Leeds.
He noted that Bueno made 25 league appearances for Wolves last season but isn’t considered a key player, which Leeds hopes to capitalize on.
Palmer emphasized that Leeds isn’t the only club interested in Bueno, with attention coming from both domestic and European clubs.
He speculated that Wolves might want to secure a replacement before allowing Bueno to leave.Leeds manager Daniel Farke is reportedly keen on Bueno, seeing him as a versatile player who could cover multiple defensive positions.
This is particularly important given Leeds’ current limited options at full-back.
Palmer concluded by noting that while Wolves seem willing to let Bueno go, they’re likely prioritizing finding a replacement first.
He also mentioned that Celtic and Feyenoord are looking to sign Bueno permanently, adding another dimension to the transfer situation.
