Leeds United are reportedly not willing to let goalkeeper Illian Meslier leave Elland Road this summer for anything less than their £40m valuation of the Frenchman.

Leeds United have reportedly placed a £40m price tag on goalkeeper Illan Meslier ahead of the summer transfer window, with the belief that the player will want a move away if the club are relegated to the Championship.

The 23-year-old has been an ever-present in The Whites' Premier League net this season, starting all 30 matches so far and keeping five clean sheets as Javi Gracia's men look to secure their top-tier status.

The French youth international became the youngest goalkeeper to reach 100 appearances in the Premier League this season - a statistic which seems to have attracted plenty of interest in the player.

According to Football Insider, the Leeds hierarchy are not willing to let Meslier leave the Yorkshire club this summer for less than £40m, taking into account the keeper's current ability and potential.

The report also claims that Premier League giants Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea have all shown interest in luring the Frenchman away from Elland Road in the upcoming transfer window.

Meslier's current deal expires in 2026, meaning Leeds have no fears of losing him on a free transfer - Gracia's men host Liverpool in the Premier League on Monday night in front of their home fans.
