Leeds United are considering a move for Callum O’Dowda, report Sky Sports.

Bristol City winger O’Dowda is being considered as an alternative to Swansea City’s Daniel James.

Leeds are looking to add a winger to take the pressure off youngster Jack Clarke.

O’Dowda has represented Ireland at international level and is only 23-years-old.

This season he has made 12 starts for Bristol City in the Championship and a further 10 appearances from the bench.

He has scored two goals and has three assists, most recently netting in a 2-0 win over Stoke City.

O’Dowda plays predominantly on the left, but this season he has also featured on the right wing and played centrally.

This versatility should appeal to Leeds manager Marcelo Bielsa, who is looking for another creative player after Samu Saiz’s departure.
