Derby County are reportedly preparing to make an approach for Leeds United attacker Tyler Roberts in the coming weeks.

Leeds United attacker Tyler Roberts has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Derby County.

Having contributed four goals and one assist from 23 outings last season, Roberts is currently preparing to feature in Marcelo Bielsa's Premier League squad.

However, according to Football Insider, the Wales international is attracting attention from Championship club Derby.

With Leeds being linked with a big-money deal for Udinese playmaker Rodrigo De Paul, Roberts could soon find himself down the pecking order at Elland Road.

The Rams are seemingly prepared to tempt the 21-year-old into a switch to Pride Park by giving him the chance to play as a centre forward, rather than in the number 10 role.

As it stands, Bielsa is likely to be against selling the prospect, despite just two years remaining on his contract.
