The defender has already been linked with a move to Leeds United’s Yorkshire rivals, Sheffield Wednesday.
Ladbrokes have made Leeds United second favourites to sign Manchester City defender Tosin Adarabioyo ahead of Wednesday’s 11pm transfer deadline, behind Sheffield Wednesday.
City’s capture of Aymeric Laporte on Tuesday has prompted speculation that Adarabioyo could be allowed to leave the Etihad Stadium on loan.
According to the Daily Mail, Leeds’ Yorkshire rivals Wednesday are showing an interest in the 20-year-old.
And, after Ladbrokes opened a market on Adarabioyo’s next club earlier today [Tuesday], it is perhaps little surprise to see the Owls [2/1] installed as front-runners for his signature – despite the imminent returns of two more centre-backs Tom Lees and Joost van Aken.
At 9/2, however, Leeds may also have a shot at landing the Nigerian-born England Under-21 international, who has played seven times for Manchester City’s first team.
Another central defender would not go amiss at Elland Road, especially with Liam Cooper suspended for the Whites’ next four fixtures – starting at hometown team Hull City this evening.
Reading [11/2], Sunderland [6/1] and Fulham [8/1] are also featured on Ladbrokes’ list of likely contenders to sign Adarabioyo.
Could Leeds United make a move for rumoured Sheffield Wednesday target Tosin Adarabioyo?
