According to reports, a private flight is arranged to bring Perri from Lyon to Leeds' training camp in Germany. He will then travel to the UK to complete his medical with the club.
This deal marks Leeds United's seventh signing of the summer window. Perri will replace French goalkeeper Illan Meslier, who lost his place in the team due to inconsistent performances.
Leeds United's manager, Daniel Farke, had already signaled that the club would be looking for a new goalkeeper this summer. Perri is expected to become the new first-choice goalkeeper for the team, ahead of the new season.
At just 27 years old, Perri is a relatively young signing, but he has the potential to become a key player for Leeds United.
