A number of Leeds United fans have taken to Twitter to comment on reports from The Telegraph over the weekend claiming that Spurs are eyeing Patrick Bamford.

According to The Telegraph, Bamford is out of contract at Elland Road next year. The 27-year-old was superb last season for Marcelo Bielsa’s side.

He scored 17 times in the Premier League last season. And it now appears that Leeds may face a battle to keep the Englishman.

The Telegraph reports that the Whites want to agree a new deal with Bamford – who earns £35,000-a-week. But they are also looking to fend off interest from Spurs.

It is claimed that Bamford is on Tottenham’s radar. Spurs are looking to strengthen their attacking options this summer.

The reports have attracted plenty of reaction amongst Leeds fans on social media.
