Leeds United are just one of a number of Premier League clubs reportedly tracking Rangers starlet Leon King.
The teenage sensation made his debut for the Gers back in November 2020 and has gone on to become a regular starter under current boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst.
King, who is a central defender, has made 10 appearances this season, including three in the Champions League against Ajax, Napoli and Liverpool.

The promising Scotsman has been linked with a host of Premier League outfits who all seem keen on landing the defender.
And according to football transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano, Leeds have joined the likes of Manchester United and Newcastle United in sending scouts to Ibrox to monitor the Scotland youth international.
The 18-year-old is out of contract in the summer of 2024, meaning Rangers may have to decide this summer to cash in on him. King would fit the profile of the type of player Leeds have been targeting in recent transfer windows; young, up and coming prospects with plenty of upside.
However they will likely face stern competition from clubs who could potentially offer him more European football, which could be Leeds downfall in any potential pursuit of King.
