Lancs Live claim Brentford have joined Burnley and Luton Town in the race for Leeds United defender Cody Drameh with the right-back’s future very much in doubt – with the Whites also keen to keep the youngster at Elland Road.
Drameh, 21, returns to Leeds with nothing yet decided on his future. He has come back to Elland Road after starring for Luton during the second half of the season, having joined in January. Drameh played a crucial part in promotion.
There was an expectation that Luton would now sign him permanently. Fabrizio Romano recently said Luton would now open talks, but so would Vincent Kompany’s Burnley. Now, there is another Premier League club interested.
It comes in the form of Brentford and Thomas Frank, who are keen on raiding Leeds this summer for Drameh. The list of admirers for the England U21 man is growing – with a route back to the Premier League increasingly likely.
Brentford join Burnley and Luton in race for Leeds defender Drameh
Leeds have got to keep Drameh. They simply have to keep him. Over the last two seasons, Drameh has won the Cardiff Player of the Season award despite only playing for the Bluebirds for half a season. Then, promotion.
He has a real decision to make. There is a chance he could stay at Leeds, but only if the Whites make him first choice on the right flank. If he does decide to remain at Elland Road, then the club must offer him a new contract.
A move to Brentford may see him struggle for regular game time, but at a club that could be pushing for Europe next season. Burnley and Luton would surely see Drameh start regularly in the Premier League. A massive decision.
