Leeds United are closely monitoring Franculino Djú, and he is also the subject of interest from several other English clubs. TEAMtalk reports that Leeds United have increased their scouting of Franculino Djú in recent months as a result of his performances. FC Midtjylland will only permit the player to leave for an offer that exceeds the record transfer fee from the Danish league, which is over 25 million euros. The club previously rejected a 25 million euro offer from the Saudi Pro League earlier in the summer.

Journalist Graeme Bailey states that Leeds United are monitoring FC Midtjylland's 21-year-old attacker, Franculino Djú, who is a Guinea-Bissau international, and that Leeds recently sent scouts to observe him. The English club is among a group of interested parties that also includes PSG, Everton, West Ham, FC Bologne, and Bayern Munich. Information exclusively from Africafoot indicated a few months ago that the player's price was set at €20 million. Due to his performances and growing interest from top European clubs, the Danish club is now reportedly demanding £40 million for the forward. Franculino joined the club in July 2023 and is under contract until June 2029. According to Transfermarkt, he has a current market value of €13.00m. He has scored 1 goal in 14 appearances for his country and has registered 3 goals and 4 assists in 14 Superliga games this season.
