Alexander Nubel, a goalkeeper for Bayern Munich who was once compared to Manuel Neuer, is a target for Leeds United in an ambitious summer transfer, according to BILD.
This summer, Nubel has had two offers: one from Leeds United, who would want to sign him permanently, and one from Stuttgart in Germany, who have both made loan offers. Instead of allowing him to depart on another loan agreement, Bayern would like to sell him on a permanent basis.
A decision about the goalie’s future should be made before Stuttgart’s preseason training camp begins on July 17; it has been reported that the goalkeeper is valued at £6.8 million and has two years remaining on his present deal.
Nubel made 38 appearances in Ligue 1 with Monaco where he spent last season on loan, keeping 9 clean sheets across those games.
This would be a fantastic deal
This deal would be a brilliant one for Leeds United. While Nubel may not have hit the lofty heights once expected of him when Bayern signed him as a future successor to legendary goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, he is still only 26 years old and has room to grow.

The Yorkshire team appears to have several advantages that would put them ahead of the competition for his signature. They can offer the player larger salary than he would receive in Germany since they are offering a permanent transfer for the player (and one that is affordable for the club at that), which is Bayern’s preferred choice.
With the great heights originally expected of Nubel, this would be an ambitious signing from Leeds, as previously indicated. It demonstrates the club’s ambition in its search of new hires during a trying summer.
In other Leeds United news, the team has already signed one young player and is close to doing so again.
