Leeds United fans will be seriously looking forward to getting themselves some new players in the summer as the club needs a rebuild.

Though some of the players are good enough, too many have proven passengers this season and the lack of willingness to get on the ball and take games by the scruff of the neck will be a concern.

With that in mind, then, Paul Heckingbottom and Victor Orta will be looking to get the fans back onside with some good arrivals but it remains to be seen who exactly will come in in order to do that.

There are some interesting rumours around at the moment involving the Whites, though, and so with that in mind here is the new look defence the club could have for next season...

BPF looks a great young goalkeeper and it could be worth keeping him between the sticks on a long-term basis.

Of course, there are always risks with a young 'keeper but so far he has looked solid and that should continue if he gets plenty of minutes next season.

Certainly, you can't see Felix Wiedwald getting his spot back any time soon.

Luke Ayling will be a real sight for Leeds fans next season because they have missed him badly this year.

Committed and determined to represent the club in the most professional way, he's exactly the kind of character the Whites need more of.

Him staying fit next year is something the team will be hoping happens without a doubt.

Pontus Jansson has had a tough year this season but he might just get back to his best if a more solid defence is around him.

He seems to have been dragged down to the level of the players that aren't really good enough this year and, though that's no real excuse, you'd expect him to return for next season in better form.

Especially if this man comes in next to him...

According to the Yorkshire Evening Post, Leeds are looking into a deal that would surely make a number of fans happy.

Many have called for the return of Kyle Bartley ever since he ended his loan deal with Swansea and it seems as though they might finally get their wish.

Talks are underway, apparently, so let's see how they progress.

Tom Pearce looks a bright young left back so why not give him a real chance next season?

Of course, it is a risk to rely on a young player but he's done well since being introduced to the senior squad.

He drives forward and looks like a player that understands what the club is about - a vast improvement on many at the club.
