Leeds travel to Australia for pre-season, where they will play Manchester United, on July 13.
This week, Jansson has been back training with his former club Malmo in Sweden.
He said: "I have nothing to say."
Jansson has become a firm fans' favourite at Elland Road in his three years at the club.
Initially joining on loan from Torino, he was bought for £3.5million in summer 2017.
He has since played more than 100 matches for the club, scoring nine goals, and was a key part of the side that reached the play-offs last season.
