According to The Scottish Sun, Leeds United head coach Marcelo Bielsa watched Rangers target Ryan Kent in action for Liverpool at the weekend.

Leeds boss Bielsa was reportedly in attendance during Liverpool’s 3-1 win against Bradford City in a pre-season friendly on Sunday.

The Whites are interested in Kent and his Liverpool teammate Harry Wilson, and Bielsa watched both the wingers, according to the report.

The Scottish Sun, though, has claimed that Rangers are favourites to land Kent on a season-long loan deal in the summer transfer window should Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp decide to let him leave again.

Good signing for Leeds United?

Kent is a very good and tricky winger who did well during his loan spell at Rangers last season.

The winger’s loan spells in the Championship in England, though, have not been great, but the 22-year-old has progressed well in recent years, and Bielsa must have been something in him to reportedly want to bring the former England Under-20 international to Elland Road this summer.
