Hoffenheim and Bayer Leverkusen are also interested in Drameh this window.

The 20-year-old has made four appearances for Leeds this season, making his full Premier League debut in the loss to Arsenal last month.

Prior to that, Drameh had been a regular figure in the Whites’ Under-23 team, making 33 appearances. 

A move away could makes sense for the youngster as it would afford him more first-team experience.
