Arnaud Kalimuendo profiled as PSG forward linked with Leeds United transfer

Leeds United have been linked with a move for PSG striker Arnaud Kalimuendo as Jesse Marsch looks to bolster his attacking options this summer. The Whites struggled in front of goal last year with Patrick Bamford missing a large chunk of the season.

At the time of writing, Leeds have brought in six players to bolster their squad with more expected to come through the door before the curtain-raiser against Wolves next month. One of those names being linked is Kalimuendo who scored 13 times on loan for RC Lens last season in Ligue 1 and has made quite the name for himself.

The French youth international came through the ranks at PSG but has spent the last two seasons on loan with RC Lens in Ligue 1. Andrea Radrizzani reportedly a fan of the youngster, who has scored 21 goals in two seasons with the French outfit.

A French youth international, Kalimuendo is reportedly £21million at the Parc Des Princes and has played just three first-team games for the Ligue 1 title winners. The youngster is capable of playing through the middle or on either flank which would provide Marsch's with some much versatility in the final third.

The 20-year-old has a good record on the international stage and has regularly found the back of the net for France's youth sides, but is yet to break into the senior side.
