Leeds aims to sign Atalanta midfielder Ruslan Malinovskyi

The Telegraph claims, Leeds intends to strengthen the squad with the Atalanta and the national team of Ukraine midfielder Ruslan Malinovskyi.

Marcelo Bielsa is looking for an attacking midfielder who could compete with Pablo Hernandez.

The club could not agree on the price of the Udinese player Rodrigo De Paul, who was considered for the candidacy before.  

Udinese asked for 30 million euros for the Argentinean.

Leeds coach believes, Malinovsky can be bought for 20 million and he is not worse than De Paul.

Ruslan played 44 matches for Atalanta and scored 9 goals last season, while De Paul spent 35 matches for Udinese in all tournaments and scored 7 goals.
