According to information revealed by the 'Daily Telegraph', Leeds will present Patrick Bamford with a new contract after the rumoured interest from Tottenham for the striker.

It is quite likely that Tottenham are left without Harry Kane this summer. The 150 million euros that Man City plan to put on the table look to be more than sufficient to bring the striker to the Etihad.

In that scenario, Spurs will look to a market that they have already been exploring so as not to be caught by surprise. One of the directive's preferences is reportedly Patrick Bamford.

The goalscorer made a name for himself in the league last season with his 17 strikes in the Premier League for Leeds United. Such numbers alongside some impressive performances could take him to North London, although his current employers aren't going to sit idly by and let that happen.

According to reports from the 'Daily Telegraph' this Monday, both the club and Marcelo Bielsa reacted to this interest from Tottenham. As a result, they will offer him a new contract offer, with the relevant increase in salary so that he stays at Elland Road.
