Reports from Italy claim Leeds United are looking to bring in another right-back in January, with Genoa man Aleandro Rosi a target.
The 30-year-old former Roma star is in contract disputes with the Serie A club, as both sides disagree on the number of years his current deal, which expires next summer, should be extended for.
The Whites are said to be keeping tabs on the situation, and could make a swoop in January.
First-choice right-back at Elland Road Luke Ayling has played every minute of all 22 Championship games thus far, and a backup and competition for him is being sought after.
For all his experience, Rosi fits the bill, with more than a decade of playing for 10 teams enough to prepare him for any challenge as he gets close to drawing the curtain on his career.
His willingness to always put in crosses upon crosses into the opponent’s box is a constant source of goal-creating opportunities Leeds can do with in the second half of the campaign.
Rosi has just 6 months left on his contract and will be available for cheap if a January move were to be completed by the Whites.
