da roleta: Eredivisie side Cambuur have been linked with a late swoop for Leeds United right-back Cody Drameh, according to Omrop Fryslan journalist Andor Faber.
The Lowdown: Summerville interest
da lvbet: Drameh isn’t the first Leeds player the Dutch side have shown an interest in this summer.
Crysencio Summerville, who made the switch to Elland Road last September, was linked with a season-long loan move to the newly-promoted side back in July.
As we know, the Dutch winger has stayed in Yorkshire and has been on the bench in all three first-team games this season.
Even though they missed out on Summerville, it seems as if they may try their luck with a move for Drameh, described as ‘fantastic’ by Ben Parker.
The Latest: Faber post
Faber took to Twitter on Monday evening to share Cambuur’s interest in the 19-year-old.
He revealed that the Dutch side are looking at the full-back, however, a deal could be complicated due to the possibility of playing time under Marcelo Bielsa.
Drameh was included in Bielsa’s matchday squad for just the second time in the 2-2 draw with Everton on the weekend.
The Verdict: Keep
Even though the teenager could head, presumably on loan, to the Netherlands and play regular first-team football, it would make sense to keep Drameh in Yorkshire.
The Whites chose not to add to their right-back ranks this summer, showing faith in both Drameh and Jamie Shackleton.
Drameh continues to be a regular for the Under-23’s and is reportedly knocking on the door over an England Under-21 call-up.
If he can continue to impress at Thorp Arch, he may well become a regular in Bielsa’s matchday squad, and who knows, could take over from Luke Ayling in years to come.
