Leeds United transfer rumours as Whites 'plot summer swoop' for Bournemouth midfielder

A round-up of the latest Leeds United transfer rumours on Wednesday, May 10.

Leeds United interested in signing out of contract midfielder

Leeds United are reportedly one of a number of clubs keen on signing AFC Bournemouth’s Jefferson Lerma this summer. According to Relevo’s Matteo Moretto, reported by AS in Colombia, the Whites are keen on signing Lerma, who is out of contract at the Cherries in June.

Lerma scored a brace against Leeds in their 4-1 win over Leeds last month, and are said to be very attentive to his situation on the south coast. However, Lerma has also reportedly received offers from other clubs.

Any move to Leeds United is said to be dependent on their Premier League status, with relegation ruling out a move to Elland Road.

Joel Robles' long-term future to be decided

Fabrizio Romano claims Joel Robles' long-term future at Leeds United still needs to be decided, but two other European clubs are interested in signing the shot stopper. The Whites goalkeeper came into the side in place of Illan Meslier against Manchester City, with supporters pleased to see the change.

“Joel Robles future will be decided at the end of the season – he’s expected to play the final games of the season after his good performance vs Man City,” Romano tweeted.

“Robles contract expires in June, more than two European clubs are informed on the situation, also waiting on Leeds.”
