Leeds United are reportedly interested in signing Torino’s versatile defender Ola Aina in January, Abbeylivenetwork.com reports.

The 25-year-old, who came through the ranks at Chelsea, has become a first-team regular with the Serie A outfit, making 16 league appearances as a wing-back this season.

Aina, who can operate as a full-back or as a winger, spent the 2020-21 campaign on loan with Fulham, however a permanent move to the Cottagers failed to materialise following their relegation to the Championship.

Talks over a new contract with Torino have stalled with a move away from the club now likely.

The 26-year-old will be free to begin transfer talks with a new club in January.

Crystal Palace and West Ham United are the other Premier League clubs reportedly interested in Aina.

The Nigeria international has featured in 93 Serie A matches, with two goals and five assists to his name.
