The 25-year-old currently plies his trade in France with Lyon, who only signed him from Viktoria Plzeň in August.
A senior Czech Republic international, Šulc has gone from strength to strength in Ligue 1 and registered 10 goals across 21 appearances.
Leeds have been linked with the attacking midfielder, who is also thought to have attracted admiring glances from the likes of Aston Villa, Nottingham Forest and Fulham.
Tottenham Hotsur credited with interest in Leeds United ‘target’
Mail Online have now thrown Spurs into the mix, claiming the struggling Premier League club are among his potential suitors.
Atletico Madrid have also been linked with Šulc, who lyon reportedly want a staggering £43m for.
The report has, however, claimed there is hope that price can be negotiated down.
Leeds United focused on Premier League survival
Šulc would undeniably be a significant coup for Leeds, who will need to continue investing in their squad if Premier League safety is secured this season.
A number of shrewd signings were made by the Whites this summer and the calibre of the squad will need to rise again.
Premier League status will be key in convincing talent to make the move to Elland Road and Whites boss Daniel Farke believes his side have a “great chance” of staying up.
After his side’s 1-1 draw with Aston Villa at the weekend, he said: “I think we deserve to be rewarded a bit more often with three points but to earn survival as a promoted side is not easy so I don’t want to be too greedy.
“It’s quite normal that you have to go until the end and dig in. If we show performances like we have on the road and at home, we have a great chance to achieve our goals.”
