Leeds trials for ex-Leicester striker Dickov

Leeds United are taking a close look at Paul Dickov.

Dickov has joined Leeds on trial in the hope of earning a short-term contract.

The 37-year-old former Blackburn striker will spend a week training with Simon Grayson's side after being released by Leicester last week.

Grayson said: "I've known Paul a long time and he was with me at Blackpool so we'll see how things go."

Derby and Coventry are also interested.
