Leeds United striker Kemar Roofe is reportedly in talks with Vincent Kompany's Anderlecht over a potential £7m move to the Belgian side.

Leeds United striker Kemar Roofe has reportedly entered talks with Vincent Kompany's Anderlecht regarding a potential £7m move to the Belgian side.

Despite persistent knee problems, the 26-year-old finished last season as Leeds's top scorer with 17 goals in all competitions.

The Yorkshire club have offered Roofe new contract terms amid fears that the forward could leave the club for free next summer when his deal expires.

However, according to the Daily Mail, Anderlecht are willing to pay £7m to release Roofe from Leeds this summer and have commenced talks with the Englishman.

The prospect of linking up with Kompany, who won four Premier League titles with Manchester City, reportedly appeals to the Leeds striker.

Marcelo Bielsa's side, having narrowly missed out on promotion last season, begin their Championship campaign against Bristol City on Saturday.
