Why Lucas Perri hasn't been given green light for travel despite medical booked for Leeds United exit

Lucas Perri faces a slight hurdle in completing his move to Torino from Leeds United.

The Brazilian goalkeeper joined the Whites last summer from Olympique Lyon, but seems to be on his way to Italy already.

As things stand, Daniel Farke doesn't have many options in between the sticks, but the 28-year-old shot-stopper may not have a future in LS11.

Perri's exit from Elland Road would represent a major overhaul of the goalkeeping department, but Torino are still working to finalise the deal.

The Serie A side likely expect the Brazil national to join them soon, considering they've already booked a medical for him.

Slight delays are stopping the ex-Lyon shot-stopper from moving to Stadio Olimpico, with the story taking another twist.

What's stopping Lucas Perri from completing Leeds United exit?

MOT Leeds News have covered Leeds' serious pursuit of Manchester City goalkeeper James Trafford, who could arrive as their new number one this summer.

The Whites' significant investment in the England international doesn't bode well for Perri's prospects at Elland Road.

It isn't surprising to see the Brazilian shot-stopper looking for a way out of LS11, and his medical with Torino has already been scheduled on Tuesday, according to Sportmediaset journalist Orazio Accomando on 26 July.

Despite that, Perri hasn't been given the green light to travel yet by Leeds, with the Italian club still ironing out details around the commission fee, likely around a loan.

Daniel Farke has no excuses after Elland Road transfer latest

Farke was adamant about wanting to be backed at Leeds this transfer window after securing Premier League safety.

The German manager can't say 49ers Enterprises haven't done their part ahead of next season as they look to add Trafford to the squad after signing Harry Wilson and Tarik Muharemovic.

Paraag Marathe seems to be focusing on adding quality to the West Yorkshire outfit's squad rather than quantity, which is exactly what was needed at Elland Road.

If the targets the Peacocks are being linked with do make their way to LS11, Farke will surely be expected to finish further up the table next season and avoid being in a relegation battle.

Perri came on for the second half of the 3-2 defeat against Wrexham on Sunday, and despite delays, it looks set to be his last Leeds action.
