Illan Meslier Transfer from Leeds United to Inter
According to the English portal TEAMTalk, Leeds will look to sell the goalkeeper in the January transfer window. Reports from England suggest that the newly-promoted Leeds would be willing to accept a modest fee to let him go, even if it is just enough to cover the remaining salary until the end of the contract. In this scenario, Inter appears to be in pole position for the French goalkeeper born in 2000, seen as a potential long-term successor to Sommer and a low-cost opportunity that the Nerazzurri management is viewing with great interest.
Leeds United are ready to sell Meslier in January, with several clubs already showing interest, according to Teamtalk. Clubs in France, Spain, and Italy, including Inter Milan, Lorient, and Valencia, have reportedly monitored his situation. Inter Milan, in particular, have been tipped as strong contenders, viewing Meslier as a cost-effective replacement for their current options. Meslier’s contract expires in the summer of 2026. The preferred route, according to sources, would be to accept a modest fee rather than see him walk away for free.
Leeds United will try to offload goalkeeper Illan Meslier in the January transfer window. Inter Milan lead the race for Meslier’s signature, with the Serie A giants identifying him as a long-term replacement for Yann Sommer. Sources state that Inter see him as a very good opportunity to sign a goalkeeper for a cut-price fee, capitalising on Meslier’s reduced role and contract situation. The Frenchman’s ball-playing ability aligns with Inter’s tactical demands, despite having shown signs of deterioration in recent times.
Inter Milan are reportedly interested in Leeds United goalkeeper Illan Meslier as a potential free agent signing for next summer, according to CalcioMercato.it. The Serie A club is looking for a new goalkeeper for the future, with their current keeper Yann Sommer's contract also expiring next summer. Meslier is being 'considered' as one of their options, as he is not in manager Daniel Farke's plans at Leeds, where he is now the third-choice goalkeeper, and his contract is set to run out at the end of the season.
