Leeds striker Kemar Roofe is edging closer to completing his move to Vincent Kompany's Anderlecht, with a medical set to take place over the weekend.

The 26-year-old was Leeds' top scorer last season with 16 goals despite picking up knee injuries, and will earn his club a £7million transfer fee.

He injured an ankle during their recent tour of Australia too and is still not fully fit, though is still expected to pass medical examination.
