Leeds United goalkeeper Lucas Perri approaches transfer to Torino

Summary

Lucas Perri is nearing a transfer from Leeds United to Torino, with negotiations reportedly in the final phase. According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Perri has agreed to personal terms with Torino as the Serie A club looks for a replacement for their injured goalkeeper. Leeds has shifted its stance from a permanent transfer to allowing a season-long loan with an option to buy for £11.9 million. This change follows Leeds’ recent acquisition of James Trafford, making Perri’s position more precarious as he seeks regular playing time. With Perri's potential departure, Leeds needs to find experienced backup goalkeeper coverage behind Trafford.
