Bournemouth are threatening Leeds United's plans for FC Zurich winger Willy Gnonto.

Football Insider says Bournemouth are ready to hijack Leeds' deal for Gnonto.

Jesse Marsch's side are understood to have agreed personal terms with the Italian and are in talks with the Swiss club over a fee for the youngster.

However, the Cherries could hijack that deal after their technical director Richard Hughes attended Zurich's Europa League qualifier at Hearts on Thursday to assess Gnoto in person.

The 18-year-old scored ten goals and provided five assists in 36 appearances across all competitions for the Swiss outfit last season and looks set to be headed for the Premier League.
