Former Leeds United striker Kemar Roofe linked with shock League One transfer

Kemar Roofe could reportedly be on the way out of Rangers after emerging as a target for his old Championship rivals Derby County. The striker was at Leeds United during the 2018/2019 season in which the Whites and Derby struck up a fierce rivalry which culminated in the play-off semi-final capitulation at Elland Road.

He hit 15 goals in 33 Championship appearances that season before one season at Belgian outfit Anderlecht and then on to Rangers. The 29-year-old has 34 goals in 72 games for the Scottish side - including one in the Europa League quarter-final win over Braga.

But the 29-year-old has suffered with injuries, particularly towards the back end of this season, forcing 'Gers manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst to add attacking firepower this summer. That has forced Roofe down the pecking order which has caught the attention of the League One Rams, with the Sunday Mirror reporting that they are weighing up an offer.
