Everton boss Moyes pencils Leeds striker Beckford in for Australia tour

Everton boss David Moyes is already pencilling in Leeds United striker Jermaine Beckford for his preseason Australia tour.

The Daily Express says Everton have prepared a four-year deal for Beckford, 26, who scored 31 goals last season as Leeds won promotion to the Championship.

Moyes has a proven track record of signing talent from the lower leagues and Beckford, who has rejected an offer of a new contract at Elland Road, will accompany Everton on a pre-season tour to Australia.
