Leeds United want to sign experienced goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon on a free transfer this summer, according to a report.

Leeds United are reportedly in the hunt for experienced goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon.

The 41-year-old will officially become a free agent at the end of this month when his contract with French champions Paris Saint-Germain comes to an end.

Barcelona have been credited with an interest in the stopper, who has played over 900 professional matches during spells with Parma, Juventus and PSG.

However, according to Corriere della Sera, Leeds will compete with Fluminense and Porto for Buffon's signature ahead of the 2019-20 campaign.

The Whites signed Kiko Casilla from Real Madrid during the January transfer window, with the Spaniard penning a four-and-a-half-year contract at Elland Road.

The 32-year-old struggled to impress for Marcelo Bielsa's side, though, and could leave the Championship outfit ahead of the new season.
