Leeds United target Premier League goalkeeper

Leeds United are reportedly planning a January bid for former Manchester United goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard.

The Championship outfit’s new manager Steve Evans, who saw his side rise to 15th in the standings following the Whites’ 2-0 win at Huddersfield Town on Saturday, are thought to have identified the West Brom shot stopper as a priority target ahead of the forthcoming transfer window.

Anders Lindegaard has made just one appearance for West Brom since his summer switch from Manchester United.

The 31-year-old, who only left Old Trafford for The Hawthorns during the summer, has made just one appearance for the Baggies so far this season, playing in West Brom’s 3-0 League Cup defeat to Norwich City back in September.

With the Denmark international behind Boaz Myhill in the current pecking order; plus with regular number one Ben Foster still to return from injury, Lindegaard is likely to become third choice under Baggies boss Tony Pulis in the short-term future, meaning he could be tempted with a move north to Leeds.
