A number of Leeds United players were expected to leave the club following defeat in the play-off final at Wembley.
Rumors are circulating regarding the likes of Crysencio Summerville and Wilfried Gnonto with around one month still to go in the transfer window.
However, the team appear to be united as they prepare for a strong start of the new season, as they return from their pre-season tour in Germany.
Meslier’s Commitment to Leeds
Goalkeeper Illan Meslier never gave a thought to leaving Leeds United. He has appeared 165 times for the club and is an integral part of the side.
However, despite interest from other clubs such as Marseille the French goalkeeper has pinned his colors firmly to Leeds.
He said he was annoyed by the play-off loss but revealed that his objective remained to gain promotion this season and added assurances of cooperating in achieving that.
Vice Captain and Key Player
At Leeds he was recently made a vice-captain, standing alongside Pascal Struijk with Ethan Ampadu as captain.
Leeds owe a hell of a lot to Meslier and his performances have been described as “world class” by manager Daniel Farke.
The club has reportedly set a £20m asking price for the goalkeeper, showing his value to the team.
Looking Forward
With Leeds United gearing up for the upcoming season, players are being committed to much like Meslier.
If things go good we try to do a little better than our start last season and maybe even fight for promotion.
Leeds fans can take heart from the togetherness and desire in this current squad as league action edging closer with a trip south for their season opener against Portsmouth.
