Thomas Tuchel, are you watching? Leeds Utd eye Bundesliga star targeting England call as replacement for error-prone Illan Meslier

According to SportBild, via Sport Witness, Leeds are keen on Augsburg keeper Dahmen, and a move to the Premier League could help catch the attention of England boss Thomas Tuchel. The 27-year-old is eligible to represent England and if he moved to Daniel Farke's side, who have just been promoted from the Championship, that could give him a chance of a Three Lions call-up.

Leeds managed to return to the Premier League after two years away last week, arguably, in spite of Meslier's performances in goal. The Frenchman made a string of mistakes this season but was only dropped by Farke earlier this month and with Karl Darlow taking his starting spot, the 25-year-old seems to be heading for an Elland Road exit. Signing a new number one will be a priority for Leeds over the summer, and perhaps Dahmen is the solution to their problems.

Dahmen has been with Augsburg since 2023 after joining from Mainz 05. He played for Germany from under-15 to under-21 level and is eligible to play for England because his mother is English.

The report does not state how concrete Leeds' interest in Dahmen is but with the summer transfer window not long away, it may not be long before fans find out if this transfer rumour is genuine.
