Newcastle are monitoring £10million-rated Leeds forward Tyler Roberts despite a new long-term deal on the table from Marcelo Bielsa's side

Newcastle United are monitoring developments with Leeds United forward Tyler Roberts.

The Wales international only has one year left on contract and Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa appreciates the 22-year old's versatility in being able to play as an attacking midfielder or across the frontline.

So much so, Leeds have moved to offer him a new long-term deal. Roberts came on as a substitute in Saturday's convincing 4-0 win over Burnley and has at times cut a frustrated figure at not cementing a starting place.
