Leeds attacker Souleymane Doukara is reportedly being lined up by a Championship club – and the club’s supporters are divided on Twitter about whether he should be allowed to leave this summer.
Radio Yorkshire broadcaster Mark Wilson has claimed on his personal Twitter account that an unnamed Championship side are considering a bid for Doukara.

The 25-year-old has split opinion during his three years at Elland Road and is quite often criticised for his inconsistent performances on the pitch.
He is recognised as a versatile attacker than can play as a central striker or as a left winger, something he did frequently under former manager Garry Monk.
Doukara made 39 appearances across all competitions last season for the Whites, scoring six goals and supplying four assists in return.
However, he is yet to make an appearance this season and has slipped down the pecking order under Thomas Christiansen.
Leeds fans have offered mixed views about whether Doukara should depart on social media, but some are convinced that his time with the club should come to an end.

To be fair he isn't as bad as people make out, good solid team player at this level and I wish him all the best if he does move on #lufc

Which poor club is thinking of taking Doukara on?

Douakra has racked up 93 appearances during his time with the Yorkshire club and his strength makes him well suited to English football.
He has managed to score 18 goals in that time, but failed to cement his position in the club’s starting XI.
The attacker was used as a back-up player for much of last season and quite often made big impacts off the bench.
Doukara is yet to get a look in this season under Christiansen and the arrivals of Samu Saiz and Ezgjan Alioski have seen him on the fringes of the squad.
