The outlet claim that Rennes are also keen on the 6 foot 3 Poland international, and he could be keen to move on this month after losing his spot at the Stadio Alberto Picco to Jeroen Zoet back in November.
Labelled “phenomenal” by talent scout Jacek Kulig, the 26-year-old has made 14 appearances in all competitions this season for Spezia and has conceded 22 goals in the process (Dragowski statistics – Transfermarkt).
Earning a spot in Poland’s squad for EURO 2024 is believed to be a priority for Dragowski and he would need to displace Meslier and his goalkeeping counterpart Karl Darlow at Elland Road. Nevertheless, if Meslier does leave the club this month, Dragowski looks to be a competent figure who could handle the pressure between the sticks at Leeds.
