Leeds United and Tottenham Hotspur want Keane Lewis-Potter
Lewis-Potter is a player in demand, with Leeds, Tottenham and West Ham United among the clubs linked with the 21-year-old Hull City forward in the summer transfer window.
iNews claimed only last week that Leeds are keeping tabs on Lewis-Potter and have identified him as a potential replacement for Brazil international winger Raphinha.
The Daily Star reported on May 21 that Tottenham are keeping a close eye on Lewis-Potter and have been following him for months.
Former Tottenham manager David Pleat have recommended Spurs to sign the forward, according to the report.
However, it seems that Leeds and Tottenham will miss out on the signing of the England Under-21 international to Brentford.
Brentford transfer happening?
INews have reported that Brentford have offered £16 million to Hull for Lewis-Potter.
The report has added that the youngster is keen on a move to the Premier League, and that ‘Brentford have moved decisively to secure his signing with an offer that has forced Hull to – reluctantly – sell’.
Everton and West Ham United have strong interest in Lewis-Potter, according to the report.
