Michael Zetterer could join Leeds United, with talks over a move from Eintracht Frankfurt said to be advanced. According to The Athletic and Sky Sports, the 31-year-old is on the verge of a switch to Elland Road.

He has been keen to leave after losing his place as first-choice goalkeeper at the Bundesliga club.

At Leeds, he would be back-up to James Trafford, who arrived from Manchester City for €47 million.

Two conditions still need to be met before any agreement can go through.

Adi Hütter’s side need a new first-choice after Kauã Santos departed, with Freiburg’s Noah Atubolu their preferred option.

Leeds are also looking to offload 28-year-old Lucas Perri.
