Leeds are reportedly eyeing QPR’s Luke Freeman.

Leeds United are eyeing a transfer move for Luke Freeman of QPR, according to Talksport.

Freeman struck a winner for QPR over Leeds last month. With eight goals to his name this season he is the club’s highest goalscorer.

In the Championship, Freeman would be an outstanding addition for the Whites, and it is an exciting rumour.

The way it is going, Leeds are on course to win promotion, which is a total game changer where the transfer market is concerned.

Freeman may be a former Arsenal trainee, but he has no experience playing in the top flight.

Leeds need players with Premier League or international experience if they are to thrive and survive in England’s top division.

Wolves went the international route, buying Portuguese, Mexican and Spanish internationals, Joao Moutinho, Raul Jimenez and Jonny Otto, and are better for it.

Leeds need to invest in similarly top class players, not ones like Freeman who are only marginally better than what they have.

Promotion will unlock the door to bringing new players in, possibly even some old faces like James Milner.

The possibility of landing Freeman will likely be swept aside, and it will be he who needs them more than the other way around.
