Reported Leeds United target Ryan Kent has made it into Andy Walker’s Scottish Premiership Team of the Year for his heroics for Rangers this term.

According to the Scottish Sun, Whites boss Marcelo Bielsa remains keen on the Gers winger, who has helped Steven Gerrard’s side win the Scottish Premiership title.

The outlet claims that Kent, who was linked with Leeds last summer, could now be the subject of a £15million bid as the Whites look to build on their impressive maiden Premier League season.

The 24-year-old has registered 12 goals and 13 assists in all competitions this season, shining in the league en route to title number 55, as well as in the Europa League.

As a result, Kent was named in both Walker’s XI and in Kris Boyd’s line-up on Sky Sports.

“Ryan Kent can turn a game so quickly,” wrote Walker. “He can be on the right-hand side, cut in, and crash a shot into the left corner and he can do the same from the other side.

“He can go either way and is so comfortable and can generate as much power with either foot. If you get him in the last third, something will happen, and that’s why he’s in the team.”

TBR View:

Kent is superb attacker who put a fairly average 2019-20 campaign behind him to get back to his best, and his efforts have been crucial in stopping Celtic’s 10 in a row.

It remains to be seen whether the Gers are willing to cash in on him this summer, given he still has so much to offer them – but if Leeds stump up the cash, could they be tempted?
