Leeds United have been linked to Macedonia star Ezgjan Alioski.
Leeds United fans have reacted positively to reports linking the club with a deal for Ezgjan Alioski.
Alioski has been prolific for Swiss side Lugano this past season, netting 17 goals in all competitions and providing 14 assists.
Swiss outlet Corriere del Ticino report Leeds have already made contact with Lugano’s club president and talks are underway.

There is no guarantee Alioski can carry over his outstanding form to the Championship level but his performances last season are certainly encouraging.
He is a Macedonia international, recently featuring in their narrow 2-1 loss to Spain.
Signing a winger with an eye for goal would be a major move for Leeds, who have seen previous additions struggle.
Leeds United’s Chris Wood could benefit from the help
Alfonso Pedraza, Mo Barrow and Jordan Botaka have all been unable to show consistency and all have now left the club.
The Whites re-signed Hadi Sacko but he too is far from the finished product, and Alioski will provide another very useful option to help take the pressure off striker Chris Wood.
