Leeds United star ‘enthusiastic’ about exit offer – holding initial talks with suitors

He wants to leave Leeds this summer after five years at the club following their failure to return to the Premier League this season.

One potential problem is that he has a high release clause in his current contract, but there is a belief that his exit could be negotiated for a lower price, although those details have not been disclosed at this time.

This is likely due to Leeds’ well-established financial problems and their need to raise significant funds this summer to help fill a perceived gap in their books.

It is now up to Marseille to step up and offer something for Meslier, but his clear desire to make the move could now encourage them to do so.
