Leeds hoping to re-sign winger Aaron Lennon?

Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa is weighing up a summer move for Burnley winger Aaron Lennon, according to a report.

The Whites are on course for a return to the top flight of English football after a 15-year absence as they sit second in the Championship, despite Saturday's 3-1 home loss to new leaders Norwich City.

Plans are already in place ready for the reopening of the transfer window, The Sun claims, with Bielsa making personal checks on Lennon with an eye on a future transfer.

Lennon, currently on the sidelines with an injury, spent a couple of years in United's first team after emerging through their academy in 2003 and has since gone on to represent Tottenham Hotspur, Everton and Burnley in the Premier League.

The 31-year-old has appeared 16 times for the Clarets this term, scoring one goal and setting up another - both in the 4-0 win over Bournemouth on September 22.
