Leeds United are reportedly interested in a loan move for Sweden international Seb Larsson.

The Championship, who defeated Rotherham United 2-0 in the FA Cup over the weekend, are exploring the possibility of signing the Premier League midfielder from Sunderland this month.

The 30-year-old, who has 80 international caps for his country, has failed to score in 12 appearances in all competitions for the Black Cats this season.

Larsson, who began his career with English top-flight leaders Arsenal, has fallen out-of-favour under Sunderland boss Sam Allardyce and has not featured in a Premier League matchday squad since November.

Whites boss Steve Evans has already signed fellow midfielder Liam Bridcutt on loan from the Stadium of Light this campaign.
