Leeds United transfer rumours as Whites duo find themselves under European microscope

Here are your Leeds United transfer rumours and gossip on Monday, April 17.

Illan Meslier seen as 'heir' to Bayern Munich throne

Reigning Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich are reportedly keen on signing Leeds United goalkeeper Illan Meslier as a replacement for Manuel Neuer.

According to journalist Alfredo Pedulla, Meslier is seen as the 'heir' to the German goalkeeper's reign over the position he's held at the Allianz Arena for over 12 years.

The 37-year-old has made 12 appearances in the league this season having split duties with Yann Sommer, but the club is reportedly looking for Neuer's replacement to eventually make the number one spot his own.

The 23-year-old Whites star has also seen interest from the likes of Chelsea and Manchester United and has more than fuelled rumours of his departure at the end of the season.

Wilfried Gnonto drawing further interest from European clubs

Leeds United star Wilfried Gnonto has drawn more interest across Europe's big leagues after his fantastic start to life at Elland Road.

The 19-year-old has already seen reports link him to the likes of Juventus and AC Milan from Serie A, but now it's believed that the Italian international is on the radar of teams from Germany and the Netherlands.

According to Italian outlet Calciomercato, the star has already become a 'regret for the whole of Serie A' following his £4m move to Elland Road in the summer last year.

Now, with their struggling position in the league, Leeds could find it difficult to refuse some big offers from clubs around the continent who clearly like what they see.
