£2million fee likely to win race: Leeds must join Championship trio in race for Newcastle star
Championship goalscorer
Scoring 82 goals in 274 Championship fixtures, Murphy is one of the league’s most established goalscorers and is guaranteed to score goals whichever team he has played for.
Murphy has scored for the likes of Sunderland, Ipswich and Newcastle and it is of no surprise that he is high on the shortlist of multiple second division clubs.
If Leeds can bring Murphy to Elland Road as back-up to Chris Wood, then they will provide themselves with a proven goalscorer who could prove a crucial tool if Wood is unavailable.
