Leeds transfer state of play on Wilson, Charles, Darlow and more | OneFootball

Leeds United have yet to announce a summer signing, although an agreement is in place for free agent Harry Wilson, who left Fulham after 10 goals and seven assists last season, and work continues on Shea Charles and Julian Brandt. According to yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk, chairman Paraag Marathe has accepted there will be departures.

Karl Darlow has officially left as a free agent but remains in talks with Leeds, with a contract offer on the table. He also has proposals from Manchester United and Everton, according to reports.

Illan Meslier departed earlier this month after his contract expired, and has since been linked with Arsenal as potential back-up to David Raya. Activity is expected to ramp up once the World Cup concludes.

Pascal Struijk has ended an eight-and-a-half year spell by joining Brighton in a move understood to be worth £18m plus £2m in add-ons. Leeds also secured a sell-on clause.

German reports have flagged Sebastiaan Bornauw as a target for FC Koln, who want defensive experience. It is unclear whether the Belgian wishes to leave or if Leeds would sanction a move.

Full-back Isaac Schmidt is attracting FC Basel and Young Boys, with a permanent exit expected after Werder Bremen chose not to trigger a £2.5m option following his loan. Willy Gnonto has drawn an enquiry from Freiburg, as reported by The Athletic in May, and a decision on his future remains pending amid limited minutes.
