Nafisa๐จ Leeds United Transfer Drama ERUPTS โ Exit Looms for Out-of-Favour Star as Financial STANDOFF with Lorient Threatens Deal Before Deadline! Full Details Will SHOCK Fans!
After months of uncertainty, Leeds Unitedโs long-running Illan Meslier saga could finally reach its conclusion. The French goalkeeper, frozen out under Daniel Farke following last seasonโs crucial title-winning run, has never regained his spot โ and with Lucas Perriโs arrival, the door to redemption appears firmly shut.
Despite heavy speculation since early summer, Meslier remains at Elland Road with the transfer deadline fast approaching. Leeds have been busy bringing in ten fresh faces, but their attention is now shifting to offloading players โ and Meslier tops the list.
Lorient have reignited hopes of reuniting with their former No.1, recently adding him to a three-man shortlist, according to Ouest France. However, the Ligue 1 club faces financial hurdles that could derail the move. While Lorientโs project is appealing to the 25-year-old, agreeing on a fee remains the sticking point.
Leeds are eager to cash in and recover as much of their original ยฃ5m investment as possible, but time is running out. With the deadline looming, the Whites may be forced to slash their demands to avoid paying a player who has no future in Farkeโs plans.
The next few days will be critical: if Leeds and Lorient fail to find common ground, Meslier could stay put, draining wages for occasional cup appearances.
For now all eyes arw on whether his deal gets over the line in time.
