Leeds United look as though as they will spend another summer targeting a move for Lewis O’Brien. Their pursuit of the Huddersfield Town midfielder last summer was an unsuccessful one but, after the Terriers missed out on promotion, he is back on the radar at Elland Road.
The 23-year-old played a starring role in helping Carlos Corberan’s side to the Championship play-off final. They ultimately came up short in the 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest at Wembley but it wasn’t for the want of O’Brien’s trying.
On an afternoon where Huddersfield were largely second best, their star midfielder did everything he could to try and turn the tide. His efforts perhaps should have resulted in his side being awarded a late penalty after he was tripped in the penalty area in the 83rd minute by Max Lowe.
