Leeds linked with Anthony Stokes
LEEDS United have been linked with a move for Celtic striker Anthony Stokes, who is said to be keen on a return to England, but face a transfer embargo stumbling block.
The Elland Road outfit are unable to make any permanent transfers during this window, meaning any agreed deal would have to be a loan agreement initially.
Stokes has scored eight goals in 29 appearances for Celtic this season, and has been utilised on the left of an attacking three behind a lone striker by Ronny Deila.
Cardiff City are also reportedly keen on the former Hibs and Sunderland striker, while Leeds could also try to tempt Stokes’ former Easter Road team-mate Sol Bamba to Yorkshire from Palermo. (Daily Mail)
