Leeds United are reportedly engaged in active negotiations to acquire Nottingham Forest defender Andrew Omobamidele during the January transfer window. Leeds, along with their ownership group, the 49ers, have initiated discussions to secure Omobamidele's services. The 22-year-old Irish international is estimated to be worth around £10 million and is seen as a long-term asset who can enhance depth and competition within the defensive lineup. The player is available this window, and the potential deal could involve a loan with an obligation to purchase at the season's conclusion. Leeds are facing significant competition from Sheffield United in their efforts to sign Omobamidele, yet they remain hopeful.
