Much has been made recently about Paul Heckingbottom's future with the likes of Michael Laudrup referred to as a possible successor for him at Elland Road.

Many Leeds fans are disgruntled and dissatisfied by having Paul Heckingbottom in charge.

Heckingbottom arrived in January and did not have a transfer window to work with, but he could only guide Leeds to a 13th place finish.

Now there are large sections of the Leeds fan base calling for his head and wanting someone like Claudio Ranieri or Laudrup to come in and replace him.

Laudrup was most recently at Al Rayyan but he is available as a free agent now.

The 53-year-old has previous experience in the English leagues, managing Swansea City in the Premier League.

If he comes in, the Dane will undoubtedly want to bring in a number of signings, including players he's worked with before.

Here are three players Laudrup could bring with him to Elland Road if he is named as the next Leeds boss.

This is the transfer Leeds fans have all been hoping for and surely it would happen under Laudrup.

Bartley was so solid alongside Pontus Jansson last year at Leeds and Laudrup was the man to sign him for Swansea in the first place.

Not only has Laudrup worked with the 27-year-old centre-half before, he has also worked with Leeds' Player of the Year Pablo Hernandez.

Since leaving Swansea, Lamah's career has drastically improved.

The 5-cap Belgian international has transformed himself from a winger into more of a forward.

With an impressive goal scoring rate at FC Dallas in the MLS, Laudrup could look to reunite with the talented 30-year-old.

Dyer has enjoyed some of his best years of his career under Laudrup.

In Laudrup's first season in charge, the diminutive winger played in 37 of Swansea's 38 Premier League games and he was a key figure out wide for the South Welsh club.

But after struggling with playing time over the last two or three years at The Liberty Stadium, perhaps it is time Dyer considered moving to Leeds, where he could join Laudrup if he goes.
