Marc Roca profiled as Bayern Munich defensive midfielder linked with Leeds United transfer

Marc Roca could be the man to bring much-needed competition and depth to the Leeds United midfield. Reports suggest that the Whites are keen to add the Spaniard to the growing list of summer recruits after the arrivals of Brenden Aaronson and Rasmus Kristensen have already been announced.

The Athletic have claimed that a fee of £10m could be enough to tempt Bayern Munich into selling the out-of-favour defensive midfielder. That area of the squad is very much one that needs strengthening with the injuries to Kalvin Phillips, Adam Forshaw and Stuart Dallas highlighting the lack of depth throughout the season.

While the rumours continue to circulate regarding the future of Phillips, the potential signing of Roca would be to compete with and possibly play alongside the England midfielder rather than replace him. We have profiled the 25-year-old, considering what he has achieved, what he would bring to Elland Road and what people have said about him during his career.
