Leeds United will look to West Brom goalkeeper Sam Johnstone as they look to replace No.1 Illan Meslier. The Whites conceded the most goals in the Premier League at 30 goals when the full-time whistle went on their 1-0 win over Burnley.

Those strikes against Marcelo Bielsa’s side have all gone through the hands of Meslier, who has been the man between the posts throughout the season at Elland Road - but looked suspect against the Clarets.

And The Sun have reported that Leeds are already looking into an alternative for their French shot-stopper at the Hawthornes.
