Leeds United fans are seriously excited over rumours that they are making a move to sign Dwight Gayle.

The Northern Echo suggests that Leeds have now made contact to snap up the Newcastle United striker.

Leeds are looking for another attacker, as Kemar Roofe looks set to leave.

And the rumours suggesting that Gayle could arrive at Elland Road have caught the eye of Leeds fans, who are now becoming very excited about his potential arrival.

If Gayle was to join Leeds he would practically guarantee goals for Marcelo Bielsa’s side.

The 28-year-old was one of the Championship’s top scorers during his time at West Bromwich Albion last term, and he has proven time and time again to be deadly in the second tier.

With Leeds creating a huge amount of opportunities due to the creativity that Bielsa encourages, Gayle could well thrive with the Yorkshire side if he was snapped up.

Leeds have already made an encouraging start to the new campaign, as they beat Bristol City 3-1 in their opening contest.
