Leeds United on the verge of securing the services of Sunderland midfielder Liam Bridcutt, according to reports from the Daily Mail.

It has been made clear for quite a while now that Bridcutt does not feature in the first team plans at Sunderland and the 26-year-old has been consistently linked with a move to a host of Championship clubs over the past few months.

It finally looks like Bridcutt will be able to end his terrible stay at the Stadium of Light as he is set to join Leeds on a loan deal during the January transfer window.
