Barcelona could move for Leeds United goalkeeper Illan Meslier this summer, according to a report.

Leeds United goalkeeper Illan Meslier has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Barcelona.

The Catalan giants are allegedly planning to move for a new stopper this summer, with Neto likely to move on, but Marc-Andre ter Stegen is set to remain as number one for the 2022-23 campaign.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Xavi's side have identified Meslier as a possible acquisition, with the 21-year-old one of Leeds' standout performers this season.

A recent report claimed that the Whites are expecting offers for the Frenchman this summer due to his development since joining the club from Lorient, initially on loan.

Meslier has made 26 appearances for Marcelo Bielsa's side during the 2021-22 campaign, conceding 47 times and keeping just five clean sheets.

Manchester United are also allegedly admirers of the France Under-21s international, who still has three-and-a-half years left to run on his contract at Elland Road.
