Former Leeds United striker Kemar Roofe says his move to Anderlecht was a no brainer

Kemar Roofe has linked up with Belgian outfit Anderlecht after leaving Leeds United earlier this week.

The 26-year-old played a huge role as the Elland Road outfit reached the play-off spots last season, scoring 15 goals despite his struggles with injuries.

His exit is a huge blow to manager Marcelo Bielsa promotion plans, and it remains to be seen if the Argentine will be bringing in another striker before the transfer window shuts.

Roofe had just a year left on his Leeds deal, and the Championship outfit decided to sell him to Anderlecht for £7 million rather than risk losing him for free next summer.
