Leeds eye Dynamo Dresden midfielder Kofi Amoako in €2m move

Leeds United are being linked with a summer move for Dynamo Dresden defensive midfielder Kofi Amoako, with the probability of a deal currently rated at 48%.

The 21-year-old, who holds both German and Ghanaian nationality, is emerging as a potential target as Leeds assess options to reinforce the base of their midfield. Amoako is listed with a market value of €2.00m, a figure that could appeal to a Premier League side seeking a relatively low-cost addition with room to develop.

Amoako, born in Hannover on 6 May 2005, stands at 1.86m and operates primarily as a holding midfielder, wearing the number 6 shirt for Dynamo Dresden. He plays predominantly with his right foot and is part of the set-up at the 2. Bundesliga club, which is listed as his current “national team” affiliation.

Contract details at Dresden are not specified, with no recorded expiry date, which leaves open the possibility that the youngster could be available on a favourable deal or potentially move on as a free agent if his situation changes and any existing agreement runs down.

A recent outing in the 2. Bundesliga – recorded on 13 May 2026 – has helped keep Amoako on the radar of scouts, with his performances in Germany’s second tier forming the basis of the current interest rather than any long scoring or assist record.

Leeds’ reported pursuit remains at the rumour stage, with no indication yet of formal talks between the clubs or the player’s camp. However, the combination of age, profile and €2.00m valuation makes Amoako a plausible candidate for a club looking to deepen its midfield options.

Should a move materialise, a switch from Dynamo Dresden to the Premier League would represent a significant step up and could be a defining moment in Amoako’s early career, offering a platform to enhance both his reputation in Europe and his long-term potential.
