Leeds may pay Milinkovic-Savic clause after latest round of talks

Leeds United‘s talks for Vanja Milinkovic-Savic progressed last night, and the Premier League side may decide to activate the Torino goalkeeper’s release clause, which is slightly above €20m for clubs outside Serie A.

Leeds United consider paying a clause exceeding €20m to sign Torino goalkeeper Milinkovic-Savic this summer, sources with direct knowledge of the matter tell me.

The Serbia international’s clause is available until the end of July.

Leeds inquire about Milinkovic-Savic

It is set slightly below €20m for Serie A clubs, while foreign sides must pay just a little extra.

Sources with direct knowledge of the matter tell me that Leeds’ talks for the 28-year-old continued last night.

Napoli are also interested in the Serbian player, but haven’t yet made their move.

Leeds are still unsure whether to match Milinkovic-Savic’s clause, but it’s a situation that must be monitored closely in the coming days.

Milinkovic-Savic, the Torino penalty kick master

Milinkovic-Savic is under contract with Torino until 2026, but the Granata have an option to extend for a further campaign.

The 28-year-old conceded 42 goals in 37 Serie A appearances in 2024-25, saving four penalty kicks.
