Leeds United could aim to add a new winger to their squad in the January transfer window, and Burnley winger Manuel Benson has been identified as a possible candidate
According to journalist Sacha Tavolieri, the Whites are keen on signing the 26-year-old winger, although they may face competition from Southampton.
The Whites are mostly seeking for new full-backs this month, but Wilfried Gnonto appears to be on his way out of Elland Road in January, with West Ham interested in signing him.
The Italian striker is a highly skilled young player who has yet to make a significant impact this season under Daniel Farke. If he departs the team, Leeds are anticipated to move for Benson, who has emerged as a “priority” target for them.

New addition
Benson was a mainstay with the Clarets last season, but he has failed to get consistent playing time this season. He has only made four appearances this season. The Whites are “pushing” for a trade, but it is unknown if it will be a loan or direct transfer.
Gnonto has only made seven starts in the Championship this season, scoring once. He has been a major failure thus far, and Leeds will be willing to move him if they can receive a reasonable price.
Leeds are currently fourth in the Championship table, and Daniel Farke is hoping to lead the team back to the Premier League following major disappointment last season.
