Mark Viduka has admitted he would be tempted by a switch from Celtic to Leeds. The Parkhead striker said a move to Elland Road would appeal to him after receiving the low-down from international colleague Harry Kewell.
Celtic are understood to want at least £8 million for his services should he set his mind on quitting the club.
"The thought of playing with a fellow Australian in the Premiership greatly excites me," said Viduka. "While I have been here in Oz, I have had plenty to discuss with Harry Kewell. If it turns out that we play together at Leeds then that would be wonderful."
Stan Collymore was yesterday assured by new Leicester manager Peter Taylor that he has a future at Filbert Street. "I would be mad to think about letting him go," said the former Gillingham boss after signing a threeyear deal.
Collymore was brought to Leicester by Taylor's predecessor Martin O'Neill. With O'Neill now in charge of Celtic there had been speculation about Collymore's future.
