Report: Leeds United and Brighton keeping tabs on West Bromwich Albion’s Sam Johnstone

According to The Sun, Leeds United are looking for a top quality goalkeeper and are keeping tabs on West Bromwich Albion’s Sam Johnstone ahead of a potential transfer when the window opens next month.

Brighton and Hove Albion are also keen on the 27-year-old, and with 18 months left on his current deal, West Brom could be forced to sell him if a suitable offer comes in.

Leeds have 20-year-old Illan Meslier as their first-choice goalkeeper after Kiko Casilla lost his spot due to a long-term ban for alleged racism, and while the French youngster has been in inspired form since taking over, it appears that head coach Marcelo Bielsa is keen on an addition.
