The 22-year-old is a former Celtic trainee and has caught the eye of Leeds Manager Marcelo Bielsa who believes that Brophy is well within their budget. Brophy is yet to represent the senior Scottland side and has only made one appearance for the Under-21 Scottish team. But given his tremendous Goalscoring record this season, expect the Glasgow-born striker to break into the national team. Leeds have approximately three weeks before the window closes and should look to acquire the player in order to boost their hopes of promotion.
