Leeds United striker could make move to Premier League giants in summer

Posted by

Leeds United are worried they could lose star forward Wilfried Gnonto this summer after just one season with the Yorkshire club. 

The 19-year-old joined the Premier League club from FC Zurich last summer for a bargain £3.8m deal but having impressed on his debut season for the Whites, clubs such as Chelsea are interested in luring him away during the upcoming window.

According to TalkSPORT, the West London club are pushing – along with AC Milan and Juventus – to sign Gnonto and with a contract at Elland Road until 2027, Leeds are under no pressure to sell the Italian star.

The forward has played 17 times in the Premier League this season for Leeds, scoring two goals and assisting a further three. The Yorkshire club will make a significant profit should they sell the Italian this summer but they will likely try their best to keep him unless they are relegated from the English top flight.
