Leeds United’s Ronaldo Vieira has been linked with a move to Cardiff City recently.

Ronaldo Vieira of Leeds United is sent off during the Sky Bet Championship match between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Leeds United at Molineux on November 22, 2017 in Wolverhampton, England.

Some Leeds United supporters have been left concerned after Ronaldo Vieira did not appear on their team sheet at Forest Green last night.

Leeds won 2-1 in their first pre-season contest, and they looked sharp throughout.

However, Marcelo Bielsa did not include Vieira in his travelling party and that has sparked some concern among Leeds supporters.

The Daily Mirror claim that Leeds are considering offloading Vieira to Cardiff City, in a deal worth £7 million.

And there are some Leeds supporters who fear that his absence last night suggests that he could actually leave Elland Road.

Vieira could, of course, play on Thursday night – when Leeds have their next friendly lined up.

The youngster could also just have been given some extended time off from match action, as he played in the Toulon Tournament with England earlier this summer.

Leeds could bring in some big money for Vieira, but his potential departure is unlikely to be taken too kindly to by the Elland Road crowd, who are desperate to see their top youngsters retained.
