Leeds United are reportedly in talks with Sonny Perkins over a free transfer as he is set to let his West Ham contract run its course. The 18-year-old is one of the most promising young players in East London but is now exploring the possibility of a move.
Journalist Fabrizio Romano claims that Leeds, as well as Aston Villa, have opened talks with his representatives over a move once his Hammers deal expires. Should either club agree a deal for the young attacker, they will be due to pay West Ham compensation due to their development of the player in the last few years.
If he was to be signed by the Whites, he would likely initially join the Under-23 squad with a view to moving up to the senior squad. Although, given his desire to leave West Ham, it certainly seems as though he might be hoping for more first-team involvement.
