Leeds United are looking to be safe for another year in the Premier League, and Victor Orta will be looking for new signings.
The Whites will need reinforcements to reinforce Marcelo Bielsa’s squad, and a new left-back will be a priority for Orta and company.
Ezgjan Alioski has appeared in that role this season, as has Stuart Dallas, but there seems to be a code name on the radar.

Le10 Sport reports that Leeds have already opened talks to sign Dijon’s left-back Romain Perraud this summer, although Southampton are also interested.
The 23-year-old has been excellent up front this season, scoring three goals and five assists from the left back in just 25 Ligue 1 games.
Perraud seems like a good target given his quality and potential, but Leeds will have competition for his signature this summer.

In fact, Italian expert Gianni Di Marzio told TMW Radio that he believes Napoli should go for Perraud and recommended a deal for the Frenchman.
Napoli are believed to be in the market for a left back, and Di Marzio targeted Leeds, Perraud, as the ideal player to fill the gap.
Orta may need to move fast through Perraud, or at least hope Napoli isn’t paying attention.
