Burnley’s Josh Brownhill finds himself on the wish list of Leeds United ahead of the transfer deadline as Marcelo Bielsa pursues reinforcements in midfield.

The Whites have been heavily linked with Huddersfield Town’s Lewis O’Brien with Bielsa seemingly desperate to add more energy to his engine room.

O’Brien isn’t the only target though, with TEAMtalk now claiming that Leeds have made contact over a potential deal to sign Burnley ace Brownhill.

The Clarets allegedly want around £15million for Brownhill, who joined them from Bristol City in January 2020.

Brownhill has impressed in the Premier League with Burnley, showing energy in midfield as well as quality on the ball.

Formerly of Manchester United, Brownhill still has untapped potential at the age of 25 and could prove to be a great addition for Leeds.

Burnley fans have now been taking to Twitter to react to the rumours, with some suggesting that they would cry if Brownhill left for Leeds.

Others are predicting anarchy at Turf Moor if Burnley sell Brownhill, urging Burnley to resist any temptation to sell after a disappointing window to date.
