Leeds United's relegation from the Premier League is expected to result in some big departures this summer, and goalkeeper Illan Meslier is one of the early names being linked with a move away.
Despite losing his place under Sam Allardyce for the final four games, the France under-21 international has been linked with moves to Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham. All three sides are likely to need a new goalkeeper this summer.
At Chelsea, both Edouard Mendy and Kepa Arrizabalaga have underwhelmed, leading to speculation they will look to strengthen the position this summer, while both Manchester United and Tottenham could need new number ones with Hugo Loris revealing his desire to leave Spurs this week, while David De Gea is out of contract at Old Trafford.

And despite the fact that Meslier's form this season saw him lose his place in the team as the Whites were relegated, the three sides are said to have identified the 23-year-old as a long-term option form them, after largely impressing in his 126 appearances for Leeds.
Betfair currently have a market on Meslier's next club and they believe that it will be North London where Meslier heads next, with Spurs backed at evens to land the French shot-stopper to replace his fellow countryman this summer. Chelsea, meanwhile, are backed at 3/1 to land the goalkeeper while Manchester United are the outside bet at 7/2.
Reports have varied in recent month over how much Leeds can expect to make on the goalkeeper who initially joined on loan from Lorient. His contract at Elland Road runs for another three years, giving the Whites some power in terms of commanding a fee from the sale.
