The 49ers will be creating plans to assess the Leeds United squad, with only one thing still needing to be determined.
That one thing is whether Leeds will be in the Premier League or Championship next season, as Leeds have had a slight wobble in recent weeks.
Daniel Farke will be hoping the break will have refreshed his Whites squad, but Wilfried Gnonto was someone who got injured.
This will certainly be on the mind of the Leeds boss, but he might be more focused on how he can improve the squad next season.
Some insight has been given into what the hierarchy are thinking about one certain position.
Illan Meslier’s Leeds United ‘situation’ is under review
It’s been a difficult season for Illan Meslier, who might have reached the end of his time with the club.
Although this isn’t confirmed, Meslier was told he’s not Premier League level, which may send signals to Farke.
His performances this season have already probably sent signals, as the Frenchman’s time at Elland Road is certainly in doubt.
Aaron Ramsdale has emerged as Meslier’s replacement, as Graeme Bailey has exclusively revealed to LeedsUnited.News where the situation finds itself.
“Aaron Ramsdale is going to be leaving Southampton. To get into the England squad ahead of the World Cup finals, he needs to be in the Premier League,” Bailey said.
The goalkeeping situation is one Leeds are looking at. Meslier has been up and down all season, and changes could be required.”

Leeds should look at alternatives to Ramsdale for Meslier replacement
Although not long ago Ramsdale started for Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal, Farke should stay away from this deal.
The Southampton goalkeeper has a reputation of relegations on his CV, as his third one from the Premier League is ready and waiting.
This is what Farke must avoid and instead find fortunes with Caoimhin Kelleher, who is linked to Leeds.
Meslier is certainly not the answer for the top flight, but it doesn’t seem like Ramsdale is either.
