LEEDS have expressed an interest in signing Manchester United youngster Amad Diallo on loan, according to reports.
The Whites were relegated from the Premier League last month and they are now at risk of losing several first team stars.
Wilfried Gnonto is already being lined up for a return to the top level, with Everton considering a permanent transfer.
And according to The Mirror, Leeds want to sign Diallo as his replacement.
Although the Whites are yet to announce their new manager, club chiefs want to bring the 20-year-old to Elland Road on loan for the 2023-24 Championship campaign.
Diallo spent last season on loan at Sunderland, where he became a fan favourite after scoring 14 goals in 42 appearances.

He is yet to establish himself as a regular first-team player at Man Utd, so Erik ten Hag will likely sanction another loan deal before the upcoming season starts.
Leeds are also expected to lose Tyler Adams, Rasmus Kristensen, Crysencio Summerville and Robin Koch this summer.
Adams is being targeted by Aston Villa, while Everton are keeping tabs on Summerville as well as Gnonto.
Roma are interested in signing Kristensen on a permanent transfer.
