Leeds now talks ahead of schedule to sign a £17m GK, he is “one of the best in Europe”

Leeds United have now held early talks to sign a £17m star who is in position as “one of Europe’s best players” who are eager to trigger his release clause, a report said.

Leeds signs new goalkeeper effortlessly

With Illan Meslier making a catalog of mistakes last season, you might want those on Elland Road to crave new goalkeepers, but Sky Sports News reporters Zinny Boswell and Keith Downie revealed the title title title priority.

“Leeds United signs goalkeepers without hesitation when evaluating potential targets. They have a lot of options, including Lucas Perri of Lyon and Vanja Milinkovic-Savic of Torino.

“The goalkeeper doesn’t need the same time to install on Daniel Farke’s system, which is why clubs prioritize outfield players when windows are earlier.”

Whites are “working” to complete the deal for the midfield.

However, through a deal with Gabriel Gudmundsson, the whites now seem to turn their attention to alternative Meslier replacements and negotiate to sign a new goalkeeper’s recent advancement.

This is according to a report from Italy that says Leeds is now easy to pay for the release clause in Milinkovic-Savic’s contract, which is slightly more than 20 million euros (£17 million).

The clause will not be available until the end of this month, so the new publicity party does not need to take action, but they will be interested in the goalkeeper’s rivals, Serie A won Naples, which was also named as a potential suitor.

Negotiations have recently begun, but Daniel Farke’s side is still unsure whether they should cough £17m and should monitor the situation closely over the next few days.

Turin President Urbano Cairo attaches great importance to Serbs and says: “Milinkovic-Savic has a release clause in his contract, but these can be changed. He is an excellent goalkeeper, one of the best goalkeepers in Europe and has made too much progress.”

It’s clear that the 28-year-old is so much taller, too, and has performed well in many of the goalkeeper’s key statistics over the past year.

As shown, the Spanish-born goalkeeper was particularly impressive in stopping penalties, making many key savings during his time with Terino.

Milinkovic-Savic could be a brilliant signing for Leeds, and Leeds certainly needs to bring a new goalkeeper this summer, as Meslier may not be trusted by Farke at the climax of the 2024-25 season.
