In 2019, Leeds brought in a 19-year-old goalkeeper on loan from FC Lorient. When the Frenchman was 20 years young, the permanent transfer came. In the early seasons, the acrobatic octopus of a goalkeeper was one of the greatest goalkeeper talents on the market, designated to guard the cage for one of the truly great clubs of the future. Then the development stopped, and even playing time at Elland Road disappeared.
This season, now 26-year-old Mesliger has spent most of the season out of the Leeds squad, on Tuesday it is announced that his contract will expire and exit.
