Nicolo Tresoldi transfer decision emerges after Leeds United development
Club Brugge striker Nicolo Tresoldi could be available next summer amid interest from Leeds United.
The Whites are keeping an eye on the Cagliari-born striker, who has caught plenty of attention this season.
Against Inter Milan in the Champions League, the 22-year-old centre-forward scored a hat-trick in the Belgian club's 4-3 win at the Giuseppe Meazza.
Tresoldi, 22, has emerged as a target at Elland Road and his situation will be one to watch closely at the end of the season.
The West Yorkshire outfit have relied on Dominic Calvert-Lewin to score goals since last season, with Lukas Nmecha a worthy backup to the Englishman.
However, with the Peacocks looking to make progress in the coming years, they will surely want upgrades across the pitch, including up front.
Can Leeds United sign Nicolo Tresoldi in January?
Leeds have recently sent scouts to watch Tresoldi as they plan for the winter transfer window.
As things stand, Calvert-Lewin and Nmecha are the only two natural strikers at Daniel Farke's disposal after Joel Piroe's summer exit.
The Whites could certainly do with a bit more depth up top, but they may have to wait to sign Tresoldi.
According to Sky Sports on 22 October, the Brugge striker is unlikely to leave the Jan Breydel Stadium in January.
The forward's entourage feel a January transfer would be unrealistic, with a deal possible next summer instead.
Several top teams are monitoring Tresoldi's situation, and reigning Premier League champions Arsenal are still seriously interested in him.
Why Elland Road hierarchy could go all out for Nicolo Tresoldi
Nmecha's future at Leeds remains uncertain, with the attacker in the final year of his contract.
Wrexham, Southampton and FC Koln have expressed interest in the German striker.
If the former VfL Wolfsburg forward left as a free agent, the Whites would undoubtedly need to bolster the number nine position.
Tresoldi feels like the perfect option for the West Yorkshire outfit, with the young attacker able to learn from and potentially form a partnership with Calvert-Lewin.
