Brentford, Leeds United and Southampton are among the clubs in the race for Granada star Myrto Uzuni, according to Saturday’s AS.
The 28-year-old left Ferencváros for the La Liga side in January 2022 and has starred for them. Operating mainly as a left winger and a striker last season, he scored 23 goals and registered five assists from 39 games.
Uzuni’s fine form helped Granada achieve promotion to the top flight and also caught the attention of several clubs, including Brentford, Leeds and Southampton.
Along with Thomas Frank’s side and the Championship duo, the report states Galatasaray, Stade de Reims and an unnamed Saudi club have registered interest in Uzuni.
The Albania international has a contract until 2026, which includes a €25m release clause.
AS state Granada are not willing to listen to any offers and are refusing to negotiate his sale. It’s claimed the clubs that are interested in securing Uzuni’s services would have to trigger his clause.
Brentford, Leeds and Southampton have registered their interest in the player and there’s nothing to indicate if any of them are willing to pay €25m to sign the Albanian.
