The Whites have offered £1.7m, but the Turkish giants are looking for a bid closer to £4.5m for the 24-year-old.

A product of the Red Bull Salzburg academy, Berisha went on to make 58 senior appearances for the Austrian giants, of which 52 came under Leeds boss Jesse Marsch, with the striker scoring 23 goals in those matches.

The former German Under-21 international featured 31 times across all competitions last season, managing a modest tally of seven goals and three assists.
