The Bristol City winger was said to be a Daniel James alternative for Leeds United.

Some Bristol City fans want rid of their Leeds United linked winger, Callum O’Dowda this summer.

O’Dowda was a target for Leeds in the January transfer window, according to the Bristol Post.

But the Whites ultimately pursued a deal for the Swansea City player, Daniel James, instead – only to see it collapse at the final stage.

In the meantime, Bristol City chose to activate a one-year extension option on O’Dowda’s contract, and in doing so avoided a cut-price winter sale.

But the Bristol Post reports there is little prospect of the Irishman signing up beyond his current deal, unless the Robins are promoted this season.

And O’Dowda alleged lack of commitment has prompted the following Bristol City fans to effectively wash their hands of the player who has a reported valuation eight figures high.

This is what they’re saying on Twitter…

Whether or not Leeds have maintained an interest in O’Dowda remains to be seen, and the Whites may find themselves with bigger fish to fry if they reach the Premier League.
