Leeds United now leading Middlesbrough and West Brom in a race to sign Liverpool fantastic defender

**Interest Grows in Liverpool’s Conor Bradley from Leeds, Middlesbrough, and West Brom**

Leeds United, Middlesbrough, and West Bromwich Albion are reportedly expressing interest in securing the services of Liverpool defender Conor Bradley. The 20-year-old, who returned to Anfield after a loan spell at Bolton Wanderers in the 2022/23 season, has found playing time limited this season, making only two appearances in the UEFA Europa Conference League due to tough competition for his position.

Liverpool is reportedly open to another loan move for the Northern Ireland international, and enquiries from interested clubs, including Leeds, Middlesbrough, West Brom, and Burnley, have been received, according to sources from TEAMtalk.

Primarily a right-back, Bradley showcased his versatility during his loan stint at Bolton, making 53 appearances across all competitions. Notably, he contributed seven goals and six assists, often operating in a more advanced role on the right side of midfield.

While Leeds already has depth in the right-back position, the recent injury to Sam Byram has affected their options. Luke Ayling’s position has slipped down the pecking order, with Archie Gray emerging as a preferred choice under manager Daniel Farke. Additionally, loanee Djed Spence may continue to be utilized at left-back if Junior Firpo faces ongoing issues with injury and form.

At Middlesbrough, Rav van den Berg has predominantly filled the right-back role this season, although Anfernee Dijksteel started in that position in the team’s recent defeat to Hull City. As interest from multiple clubs grows, Bradley’s potential loan move is becoming a subject of keen attention in the upcoming transfer window.
