Leeds United goalkeeper Illan Meslier on the verge of new Premier League record

Leeds United will face Fulham in the Premier League on Friday night at Craven Cottage.

The Whites are without a win in their last three games, but they are heading into this match on the back of a strong 0-0 draw against Chelsea.

If they manage to keep another clean sheet tonight, Leeds goalkeeper Meslier will create a new Premier League record.

The 21-year-old will become the youngster keeper to keep 10 clean sheets in a single season, surpassing the record set by Joe Hart.

If he keeps another one during #FULLEE, he’d be the youngest keeper to reach 10 shutouts in a single season in the competition (21 years and 17 days) pic.
