Leeds United are considering re-signing their former academy player, 23-year-old English centre-back Charlie Cresswell, from Toulouse. The club's interest is influenced by a mid-season change to a 3-5-2 formation. However, the club is not considered a leading contender and intends to secure its safety before making significant moves for summer targets. Cresswell left Leeds in 2024 for a fee of £4m because of frustration over limited first-team opportunities. His asking price is now over €25-30 million. Manchester United are the leading contenders for Cresswell. According to sources, the defender would have a strong interest in a move to Old Trafford. Other clubs, including West Ham, Brighton, Crystal Palace, and VfL Wolfsburg, are also interested in Cresswell. Toulouse rejected offers from Brighton and the German club in January. Cresswell's contract with the French club is valid until June 2028, and he has made 26 appearances for the England U21 side. In the current Ligue 1 season, he has made 24 appearances, scored 3 goals, and provided 2 assists. His current market value is listed by Transfermarkt as €25.00m.
