Leeds United are certainly chasing more than one striker this off-season, it seems. Numerous reports have linked the West Yorkshire outfit with Liverpool's Takumi Minamino, as well as New York City FC striker Valentin Castellanos. The latest reports now suggest that Leeds are also in talks with a South American striker.
Boavista's Alberth Elis spent last season on loan at Bordeaux, scoring nine goals in just 20 games for the French side who would eventually be relegated. But the side do indeed have a clause which means they can sign him for a modest £6million, before looking to move him on for a profit - which L'Equipe reports they're looking to do - with Leeds United ready to pounce.
He had previously been a standout striker in the MLS, where Jesse Marsch reportedly became aware of him, as he scored 24 goals in 62 games for Houston Dynamo.
