The reported Leeds United target may have suitors in the Premier League.
Callum O’Dowda’s contract extension at Bristol City has quelled some rumours regarding a move to Leeds United.
It was reported earlier this month that Leeds were fans of the Republic of Ireland international, who could fetch a transfer fee of around £10 million [The Bristol Post].
The Robins then triggered a one-year extension in the 23-year-old’s contract to ensure he will not be available on a Bosman until the summer of 2020.
And rumours of a move to Leeds died down, but it looks like Premier League sides could well be interested now.
According to The Times, a number of top-flight clubs had scouts in attendance to watch the winger in City’s 2-1 FA Cup win over Bolton last night, in which O’Dowda opened the scoring.
The clubs aren’t specified, but it’s certainly bad news for the Yorkshire club, considering top-tier sides can blow them out of the water.
It must be noted that O’Dowda may not even be on Leeds’ radar anymore, amid suggestions that the Elland Road club wants Dan James from Swansea City [Yorkshire Evening Post].
