Asked about Real Madrid’s former Liverpool keeper, Jerzy Dudek, 38, with whom Leeds have been linked, Grayson said: ‘He is probably on a list of six or seven in his position who are available and might be a proposition but we have to get the right balance – are they fit enough, do they have the hunger and do they fit into the wage structure of the football club?’ The same criteria may apply to Tomasz Kuszczak, who has also been speculated about. He has a year left on his contract and has been number two or three at Manchester United.
