OPINION
Leeds United are reportedly interested in Bristol City ace Josh Brownhill and some fans on Twitter are correct to be skeptical about whether the midfielder will head to Elland Road this summer. Sky Sports reported via their live transfer blog on Friday [09:56am] that the Whites are interested in Brownhill, but face competition from Brighton, Sheffield United and Derby in the race for the 23-year-old’s signature after an impressive campaign at Ashton Gate. While it is correct to suggest that the former Preston midfielder would be a “cracking” addition to Marcelo Bielsa’s squad, the chances of it happening are low. Bristol City owner Steve Lansdown wanted to see Leeds docked pointed earlier in the season for the spygate incident, so it’s unlikely that he would want to do business with the Yorkshire club, and vice versa. It is a shame because Brownhill would be a good signing for Leeds, but this is one transfer link that is probably not going to come to fruition.

@PhilHayYEP Josh Brownhill? Surely won’t be cheap so I’m guessing it won’t happen.

Sky Sports reporting we are interested in Josh Brownhill.
Another cracking signing if we consolidate the rumours.
Will do a player profile on my Instagram TV account later on ????

Cracking little player and much better than O'Dowda.

I'd like to see Helder Costa, Jamal Lowe, Jack Harrison, Ben White and Josh Brownhill come in. Get rid of the deadwood and thats a class window.

Sheff utd and Brighton reported interest too. Cracking player but draw of prem may be an issue. Encouraging to see who we are linked with though. #lufc

A big fee, I would guess and unless we sell I cannot see it!
