Leeds United’s Kemar Roofe claims that he is improving every season.
Leeds United attacker Kemar Roofe has told TV Yorkshire that he plans on being a better player than he was last term.
Roofe joined Leeds in a £3 million move from Oxford United last summer but the 24-year-old didn’t always look a great return for the money.
Deployed on the wing by then-manager Garry Monk, the former West Bromwich Albion youth managed only three goals in 42 Championship outings for the Whites.
Even in a wide role, that isn’t an outstanding goalscoring return, but Roofe says he is a better player as a result of a tricky first season in Yorkshire.
He told TV Yorkshire, when asked if he’s a better player than last season: “Ah yeah, of course. Every season I’ve been improving.
“Ask me again next season and I’ll be a better player again.”
Roofe effectively nailed himself into Thomas Christiansen’s first XI for their Championship opener at Bolton next Sunday by scoring in a 2-0 friendly win over former club Oxford United yesterday.
