Leeds United have been urged to ramp up their pursuit of Udinese midfielder Rodrigo de Paul.
The Premier League club agreed personal terms with player last summer, but the move subsequently fell through.
Former Leeds striker Noel Whelan has now had his say on the matter, telling Football Insider that de Paul would be an ideal signing for the club.
“The scouting network identify the players but (Marcelo) Bielsa has the final say on who he wants to work with,” he said.
“Victor Orta has done very well up to now and I am sure if Rodrigo de Paul is available and a deal can be done they would love to get that over the line.
