Swansea City striker Oliver McBurnie is reportedly wanted by Leeds United in the summer transfer window.

Leeds United fans have taken to social networking site Twitter to give their reaction to speculation linking the club with a move for Swansea City striker Oliver McBurnie.

According to The Sun, Championship club Leeds are interested in signing McBurnie from Premier League outfit Swansea in the summer transfer window.

The West Yorkshire outfit want the 21-year-old striker as a replacement for Chris Wood, who has joined Burnley for a transfer fee reported by The Guardian to be worth £15 million.

The Sun has also claimed that the Swans will let the Scotland Under-21 international striker McBurnie leave once Fernando Llorente is fully fit or a new signing is made.

McBurnie is a talented and promising young striker, but the Scottish youngster does not have a great goalscoring record.

The 21-year-old started his professional club football career at Bradford City and moved to Swansea in the Premier League in 2015.

Leeds fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation linking the club with a move for Swansea strike McBurnie – they do not seem to want him.
