Leeds United transfer rumours as former Liverpool midfielder links Illan Meslier to Tottenham

Here are your Leeds United transfer rumours for Monday 10 October.

Illan Meslier linked with Tottenham Hotspur's move

Leeds United shot-stopper Illan Meslier has once again been linked with a move away from Elland Road.

The Frenchman was subject to transfer rumours aplenty last summer and is one of Europe's most promising young goalkeepers.

And former Liverpool and Scotland midfielder Charlie Adam reckons the 22-year-old could one day replace compatriot Hugo Lloris between the sticks for Tottenham Hotspur.

"Possibly, possibly," replied Adam when asked about whether Meslier could replace Lloris..

"He’s a young kid that’s had a couple years experience in the Premier League. He’s made mistakes but Bielsa backed him, Jesse Marsch has backed him.

"And that’s a confidence thing so maybe someone like Meslier could be the one for Tottenham in the future."

Norwich City monitoring Whites defender Charlie Cresswell

Norwich City are said to be keen on landing young Leeds defender Charlie Cresswell.

Cresswell is on loan at Milwall this season and has impressed so far during his spell at the Den.

According to the Sun's Alan Nixon, the Canaries hold some interest in signing Cresswell from Leeds. While there is nothing to suggest Leeds would be willing to let go of such a promising young prospect, things can change, especially if Norwich earn promotion back to the Premier League.

They could be an interesting option for Cresswell, who would be able to get regular first team minutes in the top division.

The Whites do have plenty of options at centre-back so it will be interesting to see just what they do with Cresswell when he returns from Millwall next summer.
