Leeds United have offered Bournemouth and Everton target Tom Pearce a three-year contract on an increased salary as they battle to keep the left-back at Elland Road.
Pearce's deal with Leeds is due to run out this summer and the Whites have not yet been able to agree a fresh contract with the youngster.
Everton and Bournemouth are interested in the young defender and could take him from Leeds this summer, with the fee to be set by a tribunal if one cannot be agreed with Leeds.
But Leeds have not yet given up on keeping hold of Pearce and, according to the Yorkshire Evening Post, they have put a three-year contract on an increased salary in front of him.
The left-back now has one month to decide whether to accept Leeds' offer or look to move on.

Pearce broke into the Whites first team under head coach Paul Heckingbottom towards the end of the season and even scored his first senior goal for the club.
The defender was released by Everton at the age of 16 and joined Leeds.
