Leeds United have been linked with a free transfer swoop for Portuguese midfielder Samu this summer, but he’s not the only free agent midfielder the club should consider.Jordan Miles and his recruitment team are going to working hard to ensure that the 49ers’ second summer window is as successful as the first.Hopefully, they have Premier League football as a bargaining chip this time around, with some players already being linked with a move.Leeds reportedly after Samu alongside Southampton – ReportA report from Portuguese outlet Record has shared this week that Leeds and Southampton are both keeping tabs on FC Vizela midfielder Samu.Out of contract in the summer, Samu would be available for free as his side currently look on course for relegation from the Primeira Liga.The 27-year-old captains his side and has five goal involvements to his name from midfield, with both Leeds and the Saints said to be impressed by his physical numbers, including the distance he covers in each game.Leeds should look at Leicester’s Wilfred Ndidi on a free – ViewIf the club are keeping tabs on possible free transfer coups for the summer window ahead, one that should be catching the club’s eye is Leicester City’s Wilfred Ndidi.Of course, Leeds could end up getting promoted alongside the Foxes this season, but they face a key issue with the NIgeria international and others in their squad.The EFL’s embargo on the midfielder means that they are currently unable to offer new contracts to players and register anyone new that isn’t a free agent, meaning Ndidi is set to see his deal expire.Ndidi has been absolutely vital to Leicester’s form this season with seven goal involvements, with Enzo Maresca’s side dropping just 12 points out of a possible 75 when Ndidi has played in midfield,Earning £75,000-per-week (according to Capology), he might be a big-earner that Leeds might not want to commit to, but he’s shown superb quality in the Championship this season and has been a core presence in the Foxes’ previous Premier League performance prior to relegation.Should both teams go up and Leicester get their embargo lifted, he could well stay on at the King Power, but if there’s an opportunity there, Leeds would be doing well to have a go.
