Andy Walker has raved about Rangers winger and reported Leeds United target Ryan Kent on Sky Sports.
The former Celtic striker, who now works as a pundit for Sky Sports, has included Kent in his Scottish Premiership Team of the Season.
According to The Scottish Sun. Leeds are interested in signing Kent from Rangers in the summer transfer window,
The Premier League club wanted the 24-year-old winger last summer and bid £11 million, and now they may have to make an offer of £15 million, according to the report.
Walker told Sky Sports: “Ryan Kent can turn a game so quickly. He can be on the right-hand side, cut in, and crash a shot into the left corner and he can do the same from the other side.
“He can go either way and is so comfortable and can generate as much power with either foot. If you get him in the last third, something will happen, and that’s why he’s in the team.”
Is Ryan Kent to Leeds United possible?
According to WhoScored, Kent has scored eight goals and provided seven assists in 33 Scottish Premiership games, and has scored two goals and provided two assists in 10 Europa League matches this season.
The former Liverpool player is a very important figure in the Rangers team, and given that the Gers have won the Scottish Premiership title this season and could play in the Champions League in 2021-22, it is hard to see them sell the winger, even for £15 million.
Of course, Leeds are a massive club and are playing in the Premier League, but the chance to play in the Champions League could swap Kent’s mind, if indeed the Whites come calling for him.
