Leeds United eye Muharemovic as defensive revamp begins after Struijk exit | OneFootball

Leeds United are braced for major change across their defence and goalkeeping this summer. Pascal Struijk has joined Brighton and Hove Albion for £20million, and confirmation of Karl Darlow’s free move to Manchester United is imminent.

According to yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk, Leeds hold an interest in Sassuolo centre-back Tarik Muharemovic as a potential Struijk replacement. A new first-choice goalkeeper is also on the list, with Parma’s Zion Suzuki and Manchester City’s James Trafford among those liked.

The club could also cash in on fringe options. Additional cover is required at left wing-back.

Attention now turns to how the goalkeeping and defensive unit might shape up next season if recruitment plans materialise. That picture depends on targets being secured and exits sanctioned.

Significant movement is possible this summer, with Leeds weighing up sales and additions across the back line.
