As personal conversations start, Illan Meslier wants to leave Leeds United.
La Provence claims that Marseille has started contact with Leeds United in hopes of signing Illan Meslier this summer.
According to a rumor published in the French site on June 28th, Roberto De Zerbi, the new manager, may be considering the Frenchman for the summer.
According to reports, the 24-year-old is “in contact” and “enthusiastic” about moving to France during the transfer window, having previously made contact with the Ligue 1 powerhouses.
Meslier has “a fairly high release clause,” but no price has been agreed upon yet. It’s possible that a less expensive arrangement may be worked out.
Leeds United could lose Ilian Meslier.
Leeds was ready to lose some of its main players this summer after losing to Southampton in the Play-Off final and not getting promoted.
There was always a chance that players from the Premier League and other parts of Europe might show interest in Crysencio Summerville and Wilfried Gnonto.
Having said that, Elland Road’s financial condition isn’t as dire as initially thought, so sales might not be required.
Red Bull’s ownership and investment have made this easier, which might make navigating the transfer window simpler.
Behind a superb Leeds defense the entire season, Meslier was one of the Championship’s most impressive goalkeepers.
Losing the Frenchman might be devastating to Daniel Farke’s defensive configuration at Elland Road, given that Joe Rodon has already left.
Even though they finished seventh the previous season, Marseille is one of the best teams in France, thus Meslier may have a hard time turning them down this summer.
A clause has surfaced in other Leeds news as the Whites look to add another attacker who has won two games in a row.
