Leeds United forward Kemar Roofe is reportedly the subject of interest from Wolverhampton Wanderers, Crystal Palace and Southampton ahead of the winter transfer window.

The 25-year-old has been impressive for Marcelo Bielsa's side this term with seven goals already on the board including the match winner against Wigan on Sunday to lift the team to the top of the Championship.

Owing to this form, the striker is being linked with a potential move to the top-flight and according to The Mirror, he could be the subject of a bidding battle involving Wolverhampton Wanderers, Crystal Palace and Southampton in January.

Southampton and Palace have genuinely struggled for goals this campaign while Wolves are still said to be searching for a natural goalscorer despite their bright start on their top-flight comeback.

Roofe, who was formerly in the West Bromwich Albion academy, joined Leeds from League One Oxford United prior to the beginning of the 2016/17 campaign.
