Leeds United makes official bid for goalkeeper Orlando Gill of Paraguay

Leeds United has officially submitted an offer for Paraguay goalkeeper Orlando Gill to San Lorenzo, as reported by Paraguayan journalist Carlín Correa. This move follows interest from several clubs, including Manchester United, Aston Villa, and Ipswich Town, but Leeds becomes the first to engage in negotiations. The transfer fee remains undisclosed, although the club may have pursued a figure around Gill's €6.9 million release clause. This interest in Gill comes as Leeds plans changes in its goalkeeping setup, with Lucas Perri nearing a move to Torino and James Trafford recently signed as the team's main goalkeeper. During the previous season, Gill made notable contributions, including 18 appearances in the Argentine Primera División and standout performances at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
