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.
