Team Talk reports on the potential transfer of Joe Willock to Leeds. Joe Willock has been discussed by Leeds as an alternative option, should Leeds miss out on Solomon. Willock can play off either wing or as an attacking midfielder. While Leeds are admirers of Willock, it's believed Crystal Palace are also keeping tabs on him in the likely event Eberechi Eze is lured away this summer.
