Former Leeds United loanee and Wales international defender Connor Roberts made no secret his desire to one day return to Elland Road on a permanent basis.

The 28-year-old spent the second half of last season with Daniel Farke's promotion-hunting group but has since returned to parent club Burnley where he has 12 months left on his contract. Roberts was keen to make an impression at Elland Road but found game-time limited due to a combination of injuries and the form of Archie Gray, who was snapped up by Tottenham Hotspur earlier this week in a £40 million deal.

While his Leeds stint failed to ignite due to circumstances largely outside his control, it would be no surprise if the defender was keen to seek a route back to Elland Road on a permanent transfer this summer. Roberts is known to be close off the field with Welsh contingent Joe Rodon, Dan James and Ethan Ampadu; an international cohort which saw youngster Charlie Crew added last month as the 17-year-old came off the bench to make his debut for the national team versus Gibraltar.
