Ange Postecoglou’s team is thought to be interested in the midfielder’s services this summer, as are several Premier League clubs.
According to Football Insider (16 February), the Whites may be inundated with proposals for Gray, 18, this summer if they fail to gain promotion.
The Leeds academy graduate is on the radar of several top-flight teams and sparked significant interest during the January transfer window.

According to Football Insider (24 November), Liverpool and Everton were interested in the youngster last winter, while Crystal Palace sent scouts to see him play.
The Lilywhites have now emerged as candidates for Gray’s signature, while Liverpool are said to still be interested in him.
The 2006-born sensation has been a standout for Daniel Farke’s promotion-chasing Leeds this season, starting 38 games in all competitions.
The teenager was recently called up to England’s under-21 squad for the Euro qualifying campaign, where he scored against Azerbaijan and assisted against Luxembourg during the international break.
Leeds are poised to reject bids for Gray, with Football Insider reporting (20 March) that the club will offer him a contract in summer despite signing a new term in January.
Meanwhile, Tottenham have begun their transfer plans for the new season, with Football Insider reporting (March 29) that they have prioritised signing Nottingham Forest star Morgan Gibbs-White and a new striker this summer.
Tottenham are fifth in the Premier League table following their 2-1 victory over relegation rivals Luton Town on Saturday afternoon (30 March).
They are scheduled to meet West Ham United at the London Stadium on Tuesday night (2 April).
