The summer transfer window and January brought plenty of speculation regarding the future of Willy Gnonto at Leeds United. Despite the club’s poor season and relegation from the Premier League, one bright spot was Gnonto’s emergence at Elland Road.
While he had moments of excitement off the bench in the previous season, Gnonto has struggled to secure regular starting opportunities. His performances have been overshadowed by Crysencio Summerville and Dan James, and an ankle injury further hampered his progress.
Gnonto had expressed a desire to leave in the summer amidst interest from Everton, but chose to stay after discussions with the club. However, recent news suggests that a transfer might be on the horizon.
Reports indicate that West Ham United and Lazio are both in advanced talks to sign the 20-year-old from Leeds. However, despite the rumors and interest from other clubs, Leeds remains optimistic about reaching a new contract agreement with Gnonto.
