Leeds United preparing for Becchio interest

Leeds United assistant manager Mick Jones believes there will be plenty of interest around for Luciano Becchio this winter.

The Argentine attacker has netted 19 goals in 29 appearances in all competitions this season and Jones suggests there could be a few clubs, quite possible from the Premier League, come in for his services during the January transfer window.

"My biggest fear is that there could be pressure on us from other clubs for him (Becchio)," Jones said.

"Look at his form at the moment and he's bound to be hot property. I'd be worried if certain clubs came in for him both here and abroad."

29-year old Becchio has been a formidable force in the Championship in the past two-and-a-half seasons, scoring close to 50 goals in just over 100 appearances for the Whites.
