A number of Leeds United fans have taken to Twitter to comment on reports from The Sun on Sunday (9/5; page 59) over the weekend claiming that the Whites want Conor Gallagher.

Gallagher has been one of West Brom’s better performers this season. Unfortunately for the Baggies, their improved form in the second-half of the campaign has not been enough to save them from relegation.

Unsurprisingly, there looks to be plenty of interest building in Gallagher. The Sun on Sunday (9/5; page 59) has reported that Leeds want the 21-year-old, along with Newcastle and Crystal Palace.

The youngster has scored twice and provided two assists in the Premier League this season. Meanwhile, he scored six and contributed eight assists during the year in the Championship in which Leeds were promoted.

And it seems that some of the fans would like to see Gallagher signed as an option for the number eight role ahead of next season.

Admittedly, the report does suggest that a summer move may be unlikely. Gallagher’s goal is to make the grade with parent club Chelsea. So his admirers may be relying on Thomas Tuchel making it clear that he is not in his plans.

But if he is available, it appears that he would be deemed a good addition to Marcelo Bielsa’s ranks.
