Leeds United transfer news as updates emerge on Illan Meslier and Cody Drameh
Leeds United are likely to want to keep Illan Meslier and Cody Drameh despite recent exit reports, according to LeedsLive.
The Yorkshire-based news outlet reported on its website on Monday (21 August) that while there is speculation surrounding their exit, the plan seems to be to keep them.
Meslier, for one, has started the season as the first-choice keeper and plans on retaining his spot in the team.
Right call
Leeds cannot deal with any more first-team exits in what’s been a crazy summer of upheaval in the squad.
The likes of Wilfried Gnonto aren’t making things any easier and acting pretty unprofessional in order to prove a point.
He had two months to let the club know he didn’t want to play but kept his mouth shut and even played the opening game of the season before suddenly making a u-turn.
It’s not how a player representing Leeds should behave and this certainly will not have sat well with Daniel Farke either.
Drameh and Meslier both have the best part of their career ahead of them and could both be first-team mainstays for years to come.
The right-back, especially, will be looking to prove that he deserves to start ahead of Luke Ayling.
