Daniel Farke\u2019s side are facing a delicate situation at Elland Road this summer as uncertainty continues to surround who will be entrusted with the number one shirt, while even the level of depth in the goalkeeping department is a concern.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Karl Darlow, who established himself as Leeds\u2019 first-choice goalkeeper last season, recently joined Manchester United<\/a> after his contract expired, leaving the Whites with a major void between the sticks.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Illan Meslier has also left, following the end of his deal.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n Even with Darlow\u2019s departure, Farke is still not expected to turn to Perri after the shot-stopper lost the German\u2019s trust last season following a string of underwhelming performances, which the German boss acknowledged<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n As a result, a summer move came into the frame for the Brazilian after Torino identified Perri as a target, with Leeds subsequently placing a valuation<\/a> on the custodian.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n It also emerged, however, that the Serie A outfit were not treating the Brazilian as an immediate priority<\/a> as they looked to strengthen other areas of the squad first.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n That stance has since shifted, with Torino opening talks<\/a> with the goalkeeper\u2019s entourage before other suitors could enter the race.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n The Peacocks, meanwhile, have made it clear they will only sanction Perri\u2019s departure once the goalkeeping situation at Elland Road<\/a> has been resolved.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The Whites are pushing to land<\/a> Parma\u2019s Zion Suzuki but face fierce competition<\/a> from Aston Villa<\/a>, complicating their pursuit.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Torino, nevertheless, have continued to pursue a deal for Perri, with \u2018contacts\u2019 taking place between the two clubs.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n![\"Inside](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/logo-if-man.png\"){kind=logo}
