Wilfried Gnonto has fueled speculation about a Leeds United exit after publicly stating that being around Italians again felt natural, comments widely read as a hint at a potential return to Serie A. Italian outlet reports have linked the 21-year-old winger with a move to Fiorentina, who are reportedly looking to add attacking depth. Gnonto joined Leeds from FC Zürich in 2022 but has struggled for consistent playing time, and his remarks suggest he is ready for a new chapter back in Italy.

Whether this becomes a concrete transfer depends on Leeds' valuation and Fiorentina's willingness to negotiate, but the player's own words have shifted the story firmly toward an exit.
