# Leeds United could sign Liverpool youngster Yasser Larouci this month

Leeds United could sign Liverpool defender Yasser Larouci this month, according to [https://www.footballinsider247.com/door-opens-for-leeds-united-to-sign-target-larouci/](https://www.footballinsider247.com/door-opens-for-leeds-united-to-sign-target-larouci/)*[Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/door-opens-for-leeds-united-to-sign-target-larouci/)*.

The young Frenchman finds himself out of favour at Anfield, with Andy Robertson and Kostas Tsimikas ahead of him in the left-back pecking order.

It is claimed that Leeds held talks with a Larouci last summer, but a move to Elland Road never materialised.

Now, Liverpool have reportedly ‘given the green light’ with regards to him leaving, allowing Leeds to swoop in after he failed to agree a new deal.

Larouci has only managed [two first team appearances](https://www.lfchistory.net/Players/Player/GamesPerSeason/1350-129) for Liverpool, both of which came last season, against Everton and Shrewsbury Town in the FA Cup.

Larouci looked promising during the pre-season tour of America back in 2019 before picking up and [injury](https://www.thisisanfield.com/2019/07/blow-for-yasser-larouci-as-pre-season-first-team-push-ends-due-to-injury/), but in truth, it has always been difficult to see him having a long-term future at Liverpool.

The 20-year-old isn’t at the level required to be a reliable squad member, so it makes sense to move him on.

Selling him in January allows them to receive a fee for his services, rather than lose him for free in the summer, when his current contract [expires](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/yasser-larouci/profil/spieler/554251).
