Leeds United and Bournemouth battle over former Rangers man

Leeds United are reportedly ready to revisit their interest in a former target as the Elland Road hierarchy prepare for the January transfer window.

The Whites were heavily linked with a move for former Liverpool winger Ryan Kent during his time with Scottish giants Rangers and were said to be in the race for his signature prior to his exit from Ibrox last summer.

The 27-year-old opted to join Turkish giants Fenerbahce and immediately set his sights of impressing with the Super Lig side. At his unveiling, he said: “It’s an honour to be joining Fenerbahce. After speaking to the club I am aware of the visions and targets for next season and I look forward to helping my team achieve those goals, starting with the Super Cup next month.”

However, Kent’s time in Turkey has been underwhelming and he has made one league start for his new side as they have race to the top of the table. His struggles to find a regular place in the side have reportedly led Fenerbahce to make Kent available for loan in January and TEAMtalk have revealed the Turkish side are willing to negotiate a deal with an option of a permanent move at the end of the season.
