If a new report is to be believed then Liverpool won’t be sending Rhian Brewster to Leeds United.

If rumours are believed, Leeds United are interested in taking Liverpool’s Rhian Brewster on loan in January.

Eddie Nketiah’s future at Elland Road seems quite uncertain as of right now.

Not only is the Arsenal loanee injured, but even when he was fit there were rumours that he may not be at Leeds beyond the January transfer window.

Much of that is because Whites boss Marcelo Bielsa has consistently played Patrick Bamford as his side’s first-choice striker, with all 10 of Nketiah’s Championship appearances being cameos off the bench.

According to The Mirror, Leeds are interested in the Liverpool gem, but Bielsa might be set for bad news on this front.

That’s because The Echo have reported that the Reds will be looking for guarantees over regular football from whoever they loan the 19-year-old to.

And this doesn’t bode well for Leeds for the same reason as Nketiah has struggled – Bielsa’s reliance on Bamford.

If The Echo is accurate and Liverpool want first-team assurances then the West Yorkshire club surely can’t give them, which in turn is quite ominous for their chances of signing the prodigious marksman.
