Leeds United Keen On Macedonia International

Leeds United are chasing Lugano winger Ezgjan Alioski, as they bid to reinforce their squad over the summer transfer window, and the Whites are claimed to be closing in. 


The 25-year-old is a Macedonia international, but came through the youth ranks at Swiss outfit Young Boys.

He has also been linked with German trio Hertha Berlin, Stuttgart and Schalke, but now Leeds are on his tail, according to Swiss daily Corriere del Ticino.

Alioski only joined Lugano last year and made 36 appearances in all competitions for the club in the recently concluded season, scoring an impressive 17 goals and providing 14 assists for his team-mates.

His efforts helped Lugano to finish third in the Swiss Super League, qualifying for the Europa League, but the club now face a battle to keep hold of him.
