MLS club in 'advanced talks' with Leeds United over proposed deal for Mateusz Klich
The reports claim a proposed deal has reached advanced stages for Klich to join the MLS side, who are managed by former Manchester United and Everton player Wayne Rooney.
Klich missed out on a place in the Poland squad for the World Cup in Qatar, having earned 41 caps for his country since his debut in 2011. He has become a bit-part player under Jesse Marsch this term and has not started in any of the Whites’ Premier League games.

The midfielder was a second-half substitute on Thursday as Leeds beat Elche CF 2-1 in a friendly in Spain, with Klich netting an 88th-minute winner.
When questioned on the player’s future, Jesse Marsch told the Yorkshire Evening Post it was too early to discuss where Klich might be come the end of January.
The American said: "It's not totally clear yet. I think we should hold off on saying anything about that.
"Obviously, there's been some conversations but nothing's concrete yet, and obviously there's a lot of love for Mateusz in the group. He's an incredible person. So we like him."
