Luton Town set to open talks with Leeds United defender Cody Drameh over summer transfer
Luton Town are reportedly set to open talks to sign Leeds United right-back Cody Drameh this summer.
According to the Express [30 May], fellow newly-promoted side Burnley are also keen on signing the 21-year-old.
It remains to be seen what Leeds’ stance is as there are expected to be “huge” changes at Elland Road in the coming weeks.
Set to leave?
When Leeds were a Premier League club, he was playing Championship football and now it looks like the tide has turned.
Luton and Burnley, both newly promoted teams, are keep an eye on the young right-back and want him to join this summer.
There’s a feeling that Drameh may prefer Luton as he’s familiar with the club and manager, but Burnley too, appear a decent prospect.
They’ve got a talented coach in Vincent Kompany and have a better squad than Luton so a better chance to stay in the Premier League.
Leeds had their chance of keeping him but they did not guarantee first-team football and now he’s on his way out.
There’s little reason to think he’ll snub a move to the Premier League to stay at Elland Road.
Luton and Burnley will both make him the first choice while it may come down to sales to see whether or not he’ll be a regular starter at Leeds and that may not be something he wants to do.
