Leeds United are looking into bringing in Burnley defender Connor Roberts after leaving a space in their squad for a new full-back.
The Whites have sent Djed Spence back to Tottenham this week after he failed to impress. Indeed, Spence could now be sold by Tottenham, who hope to get some of their money back.
Spence’s departure, though, has left a gap at right-back at Leeds and it looks like Burnley’s Connor Roberts is a potential target.
Leeds to target Connor Roberts
According to , there is a possibility of Leeds making a move for Roberts in January to strengthen the squad.
It comes after Spence was sent back and increasing talk of Luke Ayling making a move to another Championship club. Witcoop mentions Middlesbrough in his post on X.
Roberts started the season as a regular starter for Burnley but in recent months has lost his place in the XI.
He came off the bench against Aston Villa and Fulham over Christmas but failed to get a look in against both Everton and Liverpool.
The Welshman apparently earns around Of course, such figures won’t put a club like Leeds off who are flush when compared to most second-tier sides.
Lauded by Steve Cooper for his ‘‘ performances while with Swansea, Roberts would effectively be a straight swap for Ayling and Spence.
Roberts could fly for Leeds
Daniel Farke knows what he is doing and after seeing Djed Spence fail, he’s now looking for someone a bit safer.
Connor Roberts is definitely a player who ticks boxes for Leeds and given he was a key part of the Burnley promotion winning side, it makes sense for the Whites to look at him.
Sometimes, it’s about signing players who know the league and can get you over the line. Roberts would bring that and is definitely an upgrade for Leeds.
