# Rangers: Leeds to return for Ryan Kent

**As per [The Scottish Sun](https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/6982754/leeds-third-lucky-15m-rangers-ryan-kent/amp/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter), Leeds United are preparing another bid for Glasgow Rangers winger Ryan Kent.**

### **Pursuit of Kent still on**

The Whites were interested in the 24-year-old last summer, even having a £10m offer for him rejected ([RTE](https://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2020/0821/1160496-rangers-reject-leeds-l10m-bid-for-kent/)).

It seems that Marcelo Bielsa remains very keen on taking the former Liverpool winger to Elland Road and the [fabled manager](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2018/aug/04/leeds-united-marcelo-bielsa) has told the Whites’ director of football Victor Orta to make a move for him. Leeds are said to be readying a £15m bid for Kent.

### **Very good money**

Such an offer would given Ross Wilson and Steven Gerrard plenty to consider. Signed for £7.5m in 2019 ([Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11788/11800947/rangers-sign-ryan-kent-from-liverpool-for-7-5m-on-four-year-deal)) after a year on loan at Ibrox, Kent has racked up 26 goals and 26 assists in 123 games for the Gers ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ryan-kent/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/279457)). That is far from a poor record, but also one which could be improved upon considering that he is being targeted by a top 10 Premier League club.

A fee of £15m would represent a profit of 100% for the 55-time Scottish champions. However, given that they turned down £10m last term and Kent has since had his [best season](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ryan-kent/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/279457) on the way to helping the Gers win the Premiership, their [first major trophy in 10 years](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/rangers-fc/erfolge/verein/124), the Glasgow outfit may feel they can command an even bigger fee for him.

A lot could depend on just how keen Leeds are to bring him to Yorkshire this summer.
