Is Doekhi A Decent Option For Leeds United Boss Daniel Farke?

Doekhi is a good tackler of the ball and can sense the danger well to secure the ball back for his team inside his half. He doesn’t mind putting his foot through the ball when the opposition are on the offensive and excels at playing his way out from the back.

Standing at 1.90m, the Dutch talent is a strong presence in the air as well. However, there are some concerns over whether he can make a smooth transition to life in the Premier League if the Whites manage to get him on board in the upcoming transfer window.

We can expect Doekhi to add more bite and steel to Leeds United boss Daniel Farke’s defence. He has what it takes to fight for a regular first-team spot at the West Yorkshire club in the coming years.

At 27, Doekhi is about to enter his prime, which makes him a good option for the Whites to pursue at the end of this season. Thus, Farke would be wise to go all out to bring him on board in the summer transfer window.
