Team Talk has provided an update on the transfer situation involving Junior Firpo and Leeds United. It appears that Leeds United have not made any efforts to secure Junior Firpo on a new contract. Although he is reportedly open to re-signing if an offer is made, his representatives are preparing for a potential return to his former club, Real Betis. Initial contacts have been made through intermediaries between Real Betis and Firpo's representatives, with the Spanish club expressing early interest in reacquiring the defender. Nevertheless, much remains to be done to ensure that the negotiations progress significantly.

Real Betis are progressing in their negotiations for the return of Junior Firpo, a left-back currently with Leeds United. With his contract set to expire next summer, there is a possibility for him to join Betis on a free transfer. Firpo, at 28 years old, had initially left Betis in 2019 to join FC Barcelona. Although he did not fully realize his potential at Barcelona and Leeds, his technical skills and familiarity with Betis' style of play make him an appealing prospect for coach Manuel Pellegrini. Firpo has reportedly conveyed a strong desire to return to Betis, his former club, and is prepared to accept a contract that aligns with Betis' financial limitations.

Junior Firpo's long-term future at Leeds United remains unresolved as he becomes eligible to sign a pre-contract agreement with an overseas club. His former side, Real Betis, is reportedly leading the chase for his signature. This development coincides with Leeds United's search for potential new signings at left-back, suggesting a possible reshuffle in their defensive lineup. The interest from Real Betis indicates a strong possibility of Firpo returning to his former club, as part of Leeds' broader strategic planning in the transfer market.
