Arsenal following situation of Leeds star ‘closely’ – ‘Waiting to understand’ what Whites’ decision will be

Leeds United’s relegation to the Championship has just raised the interest from Arsenal and other clubs in Wilfried Gnonto.

A new report from Calcio Mercato mentions that ‘big’ Serie A sides are keen on taking him from the Whites just one year after his arrival at Elland Road.

The outlet highlights that this shouldn’t be an easy battle, since the likes of Arsenal are also ‘following his situation closely’.

There’s no certainty, however, if Gnonto is really moving this summer. It’s said the interested clubs are ‘waiting to understand’ what Leeds will do with him.

The story doesn’t mention the Italian clubs who are keen this time, despite recalling that Fiorentina, Sassuolo and Roma had all ‘enquired’ last year to sign him from FC Zurich.

Now despite Calciomercato’s story today, we must recall that on Monday, TuttoMercatoWeb had a piece pointing out that Gnonto may stay at Leeds after all.

The outlet, who also mentioned Arsenal’s interest, highlighted that the scenario with him playing in the Championship is ‘not so far fetched’, so we’ll have to wait and see how the Whites will deal with the situation.
