Leeds are linked with a move for West Ham’s Robert Snodgrass.

Robert Snodgrass is likely to depart West Ham this summer amid interest from four clubs, report Football London.

Brighton, Newcastle, Norwich and former side Leeds United are all claimed to be keen on the winger – and it is the Whites who might just be the best club for him right now.

Snodgrass’ move from Hull City to West Ham has developed into a nightmare, and he has quickly become a scapegoat for fans unimpressed with the club’s transfer business.

The winger always faced a tough task to replace Dimitri Payet, and his performances after signing in January were not enough to win over supporters.

After appearing in a pre-season friendly this week Snodgrass was criticised by fans for his display once again, and a departure is in his best interests.

He will have to choose his next club carefully, and Leeds present the total opposite of his West Ham experience.

Leeds fans idolise Snodgrass and hold him in high regard after his spell at the club between 2008 and 2012.

He would sign as a returning hero – and see adulating fans. The very opposite of what he has at West Ham at present.

The Whites are a club with direction once again under new owner Andrea Radrizzani, and their ambition could attract him to the club.

It is easy to see why they would be his top choice, even with the option to remain in the Premier League on the table.
