Leeds United is reportedly interested in signing Rotherham United goalkeeper Viktor Johansson during the upcoming summer transfer window, as per a report from Aftonbladet. Johansson, 25, has been a standout performer for Rotherham since joining in 2020 and is expected to attract attention following their relegation to League One. Sheffield United and Stoke City are also rumored to be eyeing the Sweden international.
