The market heats up around Zion Suzuki. According to the Italian newspaper Tuttosport, Leeds United are preparing an official offer to Parma to secure the Japanese goalkeeper, with a long-term contract already on the table, valid until 2031.
Aston Villa also follows the Japanese international, in an authentic goalkeeping back-and-forth that also involves Juventus, whose target is Emiliano 'Dibu' Martínez, current owner of the Villans' goal.
For now, it is Leeds who appear to be accelerating with more determination to secure the 2002 goalkeeper, currently serving Japan in the World Cup with the Blue Samurai.
On the Italian side, there is no room for ease: Parma does not intend to make discounts and values Suzuki's transfer at at least 30 million euros, after a high-level season in his second year in Italy.
The next few hours could be decisive in understanding whether Leeds' interest materializes in a formal negotiation with the Emilian club.
