Leeds United eyeing a January move for Juve midfielder Weston McKennie

Leeds United are reportedly interested in signing Juventus’ USMNT star Weston McKennie in the upcoming transfer window in January.

Leeds United

boss

Marcelo Bielsa

is under heavy pressure after a poor run of results and is looking to strengthen his side’s midfield in preparation for a probable relegation battle in the second half of the season.

According to the British newspaper

The Sun

, the 23-year-old

McKennie

is one of their top January transfer targets, but the English club has an uphill challenge.

The USA international is available for around £20million, but the Whites could struggle to land him as he wants to stay and fight for his place in Massimiliano Allegri’s team.

However, with

Juventus

’ star-studded squad it seems difficult for the former

Schalke 04

midfielder to force his way into Bianconeri’s line-up.

The 23-year-old has made 17 appearances for the Bianconeri this season in the league and Champions League.
