Kemar Roofe is into the last year of his contract at Elland Road

The striker has been linked with a £7m move to Vincent Kompany's Anderlecht.

The Belgian club are said to be very interested in the man who arrived at Elland Road from Oxford in a £3m deal three years ago, but no offer is thought to have been made.

His contract is up next summer and should he not agree to a new deal, Leeds would risk losing his services for nothing.

But a sale would leave them light in the goalscoring department with less than a week left in the transfer window.

Football director Victor Orta told the media last month that he believed Roofe would remain a Leeds player.

Last season Roofe was the club's top goalscorer, finding the net 15 times in 34 games.

The 26-year-old is currently out injured with an ankle injury, leaving Patrick Bamford as the Whites' only senior recognised centre forward.
