Gnonto latest
Leeds are reportedly 'in talks' with FC Zurich for Wilfried Gnonto. According to 90min, the Whites have entered the race for the Italian forward and hope to agree a deal worth £4 million. The report states that there is confidence that Gnonto is keen on a move to the Premier League.
Jesse Marsch was asked about Gnonto in his press-conference ahead of the Whites' game against Chelsea, and he confirmed their interest in the FC Zurich forward.
He said: “We know him, and I think we think very highly of him. He’s a young talented player. I think we’re very active in pursuing things and we have some strategies and let’s see how they play out.

“We still have time and I think there will be movement, with us and other teams. I think some dominoes will start to fall and we have to be prepared to act on those situations.
"With him it’d be more of a long term project. Then with that comment you can read into whether it’s going to happen in this transfer window or if it can’t happen in this window, or the future."
West Ham keen on Whites 'target'
West Ham United are reportedly keen on signing former Leeds defender Charlie Taylor. The left-back has been linked with a move back to Elland Road this summer.
According to talkSPORT, West Ham are keen on signing Taylor, who was relegated from the Premier League with Burnley last season. He made 104 appearances during his time in Yorkshire.
Leeds have been linked with a number of left-backs this summer as it's area where the Whites lack depth. Junior Firpo is currently side-lined with injury, and Pascal Struijk has been filling in at left-back in his absence.
