Grayson targets Lee Hendrie

Speculation is growing that Leeds boss Simon Grayson is set to make a move for Sheffield United midfielder Lee Hendrie. The 32-year-old, who picked up an England cap in 1998, previously made over 250 Premiership appearances for Aston Villa.

Grayson signed Hendrie on loan last season whilst still in charge at Blackpool, and is clearly a fan, stating at the time: 'Lee Hendrie is a good player, he is very versatile and can play through the middle or down either side. He is a player I know from my time at Aston Villa.'

Hendrie would add some welcome flair to United's midfield should they be tempted by an offer for the services of Fabian Delph before the start of the new campaign.
