Lille midfielder Boubakary Soumare has emerged as a rumoured summer transfer target for Leeds United.
The 21-year-old is into the final 18 months of his existing deal and has recently been linked with Manchester United.
Football Insider claims that, with Leeds looking to provide some midfield competition for the likes of Kalvin Phillips and Mateusz Klich, Soumare has been identified as a possible high-profile signing.
Former Paris Saint-Germain academy product Soumare has been used 26 times in all competitions by Lille this term, but the French side may be forced to cash in at the end of the season due to some financial issues.
Leeds are 12th in the Premier League following Friday's 1-0 loss at Wolverhampton Wanderers.
