Leeds United will reportedly consider letting 22-year-old Italian international Wilfried Gnonto depart from Elland Road if they receive a “big offer” for him.
According to a report by Football Insider, Wilfried Gnonto faces an uncertain future at Leeds United heading into the summer transfer window. The Whites are considering the Italian winger’s long-term future, and they are open to cashing in on him if they receive a “big offer” for him in the coming months.
How has Wilfried Gnonto fared at Leeds United?
Wilfried Gnonto has endured a topsy-turvy ride since joining Leeds United from FC Zurich in September 2022. While the Verbania native has been promising in the last three and a half years, he has not stamped his authority thus far in his spell with the West Yorkshire outfit. However, the young winger showed flashes of brilliance in the EFL Championship.
The 22-year-old has made nearly 150 appearances for Leeds United thus far while chipping in with 23 goals and 16 assists. However, Gnonto has endured a stop-start campaign in the 2025/26 season after struggling with minor fitness issues. That has not only reduced his game time to around 500 minutes but also affected his output.
Nevertheless, the 13-cap Italian international has won over the Leeds United fans after previously pushing for a departure from Elland Road. However, while Gnonto’s equation with the fans has changed, his future at the West Yorkshire club is uncertain heading into the summer transfer window.
What next?
Recent reports have linked Wilfried Gnonto with Fiorentina, with La Viola considering a winter move for the young wide attacker. While a January deal did not materialise, the latest update has boosted the Serie A club’s prospects, as Leeds United may cash in on the youngster in the summer transfer window.
The latest report has revealed that the Whites are open to parting ways with the Verbania native if they receive a “big offer” for him in the summer transfer window. Meanwhile, the youngster is “interested in the possibility of a move away from Elland Road” after struggling in the 2025/26 season.
With Daniel Farke preferring the 3-5-2 formation in recent weeks, Gnonto’s game time will unlikely improve in the coming months. Additionally, several versatile attackers, including Harry Wilson, are on Leeds United’s wishlist. So, accepting an offer for Gnonto may be the ideal decision, and a move away from Elland Road is on the cards for the 22-year-old Italian winger.
