After moves for Matej Vydra and Abel Hernandez fell through this summer, it is hard to see where Leeds United's next striking target will come from. 

There has been talk of Jordan Hugill signing from West Ham and Britt Assombalonga moving from Middlesbrough. 

But no deals appear to be any closer so different names continue to be thrown around.

If a more experienced head appeals to Marcelo Bielsa, then one man who could appeal to him is Watford's legendary striker Troy Deeney.

The 30-year-old is one of the division's most iconic names and has scored 77 goals in 205 appearances in the second tier, including one of the play-off's most iconic goals against Leicester City.

Despite remaining the Hornets' captain, Deeney's game time has become more and more limited, with a lot of his 29 Premier League appearances coming from the bench last season.

So could the striker be tempted by a move to Elland Road? Should Leeds make a move?

We discuss...

Jay Taylor

If Leeds are to remotely consider a move for Watford’s Deeney they better have plenty of money stashed away to pay for him.

Not only would the fee be a hefty one, but you can also imagine the wages of a Premier League striker who captains his side, and who scores reasonably regularly reflect that.

Deeney still plays consistently at Watford, so why would be drop down a division to a side who realistically won’t challenge for promotion next season?

Leeds can table their bid, but who’s to say Watford will even entertain it.

Chris Gallagher

Without a doubt.

It’s an ambitious move but it’s the sort of statement signing that Leeds need.

Deeney struggled in the top-flight last season but he would be one of the best strikers in the Championship if Leeds could pull it off.

George Dagless

It's worth a punt.

The wages might be an issue but Leeds have money as underlined by their willingness to pay the fee for Matej Vydra at least.

Deeney would be a classic number 9 for the Whites but would he want to leave Watford?

Gary Hutchinson

Deeney would certainly be effective at Leeds, he's a unique type of player who would cause problems across the second tier.

It would be a move out of left field, but one that could be a big success.
