Sampdoria midfielder Abdelhamid Sabiri is being linked with a move to Leeds.

A brief spell in England with Huddersfield failed to work out but the 26-year-old has rebuilt his career in Italy.

Now, the Moroccan has starred for his nation at the World Cup - and will take on Portugal in the semi-final. Championship outfit Sunderland were linked with Sabiri in the summer but a Premier League move could now be on the cards.

Samp News 24 says Real Betis, Lyon and Fiorentina are also tracking the midfielder. Around £5million is believed to be enough to secure a January switch.
