Leeds United favourites to sign star striker from Yorkshire rivals – Aston Villa and Wolves not far behind

Leeds United have been priced as the 3/1 favourites to sign Jordan Rhodes from Sheffield Wednesday according to Bet Victor.

Even though Rhodes only signed permanently for the Owls this summer, he initially signed on loan during the January transfer window, he has been linked with plenty of moves away during this transfer window. Some have suggested that because of his poor form since moving to Hillsborough, both parties may be willing to cut their losses and have Rhodes leave the club. This has led to interest from the likes of Aston Villa and Wolves.

Another team said be mulling over a move for Rhodes is Wednesday’s Yorkshire rivals Leeds. They need a new striker after selling star man Chris Wood to Burnley and with the Whites believed to have got £15m for the New Zealand striker, they have money to burn in their pocket as they look for a replacement. And so they started to look to Rhodes as while as he hasn’t done well in that part of the county, he might just fit in well should he head a tiny bit up the M1.

Bet Victor seem to think that Leeds are the most likely team to sign Rhodes as well. They have been priced at 3/1, though they are only narrow favourites. Wolves have been priced at only 4/1 while the likes of Aston Villa, Cardiff City and Hull City have all been priced at 8/1. Teams who have also been given odds to sign Rhodes are Derby County, Norwich City and Reading.
