Leeds United looking to snatch Burnley winger amid transfer interest in Ligue 1 defender
Leeds United are said to be eyeing a potential move for Burnley forward Mike Tresor.
Tresor, hasn't featured at all for the Clarets this season, with manager Scott Parker having previously stated the former Genk forward is still available for selection.
According to reputable journalist Alan Nixon, Burnley chairman Alan Pace is keen for Tresor to play again for his side but that somehow seems unrealistic.

Nixon claims that because of his lack of sightings, people within the club have nicknamed him 'hidden' and Leeds could now swoop in to recruit him in January.
A deal with the Whites is however seen as tough, given they are direct promotion rivals to Burnley. Tresor's camp believes a move to Elland Road is possible but it is hard to see how that would be feasible.
Elsewhere, further reports have suggested Leeds want to make a move for RC Lens defender Abdukodir Khusanov.
The 20-year-old is making quite the impression in Ligue 1 and Top Mercato says United have already tabled an offer to bring him to England in the summer.
Lens have been given instructions to sell by owner and main shareholder Joseph Oughourlian, which could mean Khusanov may consider his options elsewhere.
Premier League clubs including Newcastle United, Leicester City, Manchester City and Tottenham have also shown their interest, as well as RB Leipzig in Germany and fellow French side PSG.
The Telegraph has previously stated how the Magpies and Spurs will make a bid for the Kazhakstan international in January, so Leeds may have to offer a promising proposal in order to bring him to the club.
