Leeds United president Massimo Cellino is interested in taking Brazilian attacking midfielder Adryan to Elland Road.
The 19-year-old talent turns out for Cellino's former club Cagliari and is highly rated by the current Leeds owner, who is still scouring the transfer market for further additions.
According to Sardinian daily L'Unione Sarda, Cellino is a firm fan of Adryan and is pondering a move to take him to Leeds.
However, at present Leeds have gone no further than mere interest in the midfielder, with no negotiations under way on any deal.
Adryan began his career in the youth ranks at Brazilian side Flamengo and soon started to build a reputation, being capped by Brazil at Under-15, Under-16, Under-17 and Under-20 level.
