Jose Mourinho’s aim to improve on their sixth-place result in Serie A next season appears to include raiding Leeds United’s relegated squad. Diego Llorente looks ready to return to the Italian club after a loan spell with the club last season, but a source claims that former Whites loanee Weston McKennie is also being pursued.
According to Corriere dello Sport (via Calciomercato.com ), Roma sporting director Tiago Pinto has contacted McKennie’s representatives following his return to Juventus. Following his time at Elland Road, the American is said to be a target for Aston Villa.
McKennie made 20 appearances for Leeds in all competitions last season after joining from Juventus in January.
Fiorentina regard Leeds United trio Illan Meslier, Wilfried Gnonto, and Luis Sinisterra as potential ‘low cost’ transfer alternatives following the Whites’ relegation from the Premier League, according to Italian daily La Nazione.
However, the report indicates that those Leeds players would still cost a significantly greater price than other options this summer.
