Kemar Roofe is reportedly in discussions with Belgian side Anderlecht about a potential move – and some Leeds United fans on Twitter are not pleased with the speculation.

The Daily Mail reports that the Whites attacker is holding talks with Anderlecht about a possible £7million transfer.

It is understood that the 26-year-old has not accepted a new contract extension to stay with the Yorkshire club and is now holding talks about an exit this summer.

His current deal at Elland Road expires in 2020, but he could link up with Vincent Kompany’s Anderlecht before the close of the summer transfer window.

The centre-forward is currently on the injury table and had a couple of problems last season too, but when he was fit he lead the line excellently for Marcelo Bielsa’s side.

Roofe scored 15 goals and supplied two assists in just 34 matches across all competitions last season.

The English striker has a tremendous work-rate and he links up play in the final third well, while his finishing has improved too.

A selection of Leeds supporters on social media are fuming that Roofe could potentially depart and feel it would be a massive mistake.

Patrick Bamford would have to take on huge responsibility in terms of goal output if they do lose Roofe.
