Leeds United have asked about signing Ryan Kent from Rangers.
The 23-year old was a target for Marcelo Bielsa last summer but Leeds pulled back from completing a deal with the winger’s then club Liverpool.
Kent cost Rangers an initial £6.5m with add ons and a sell-on clause.

Leeds are weighing up a number of options as they look to bolster their attack, midfield and defence.
Arsenal defender Rob Holding is on their list with Brighton rebuffing all offers for centre back Ben White, the last being around £22m, while Chelsea’s Conor Gallagher is an option on loan.
Leeds though are unlikely to pursue a move for Gallagher’s club mate Belgian striker Michy Batshuayi.

Batshuayi has never settled in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge, being forgotten by Frank Lampard after failing to take his early-season opportunities.
Leeds were finally promoted back to the top-flight last season after winning the Championship, ending a 16-year wait for a return to England’s elite tier.
