Charlie Cresswell (21) is set to join Toulouse FC from Leeds this summer according to a report by the BBC. The centre-back’s move looked as if it had fallen apart earlier this week after the player and the club could not agree on personal terms.
However, Cresswell is now due to fly out to Toulouse this week and complete a deal that will see his formative club net £3.8 million. The English outlet further reports that multiple other clubs in the Championship had been interested in securing the young defender’s signature.
Despite a successful season on loan at Millwall in the 2022/23 campaign, Cresswell struggled for game time at his parent club last year as he struggled to break into a Leeds side that narrowly missed out on promotion back into the Premier League.
Cresswell will be joining a side that has put youth at the front and centre of the club operations, with the team recording the youngest average age in Ligue 1 last season.
