Leeds are in need of reinforcements if they are to bolster their promotion bid and according to Football Insider they have targeted Rangers’ Connor Goldson as a player who could help them to realise that ambition.

The centre-back is exactly the type of player the Whites need given he has won promotion from the Championship before, while at Brighton, and impressed enough at the Seagulls to earn a £3m move to Rangers.
