Leeds In For Ayew

REPORTS in the English media have named Leeds United as the mystery English team rivalling Sunderland for Ghana striker Kwame Ayew. As we reported on planetfootball.com, Sunderland are keen on signing the African - but faced then un-named opposition from the Premiership.

Leeds United, who have been decimated by injury this year, are currently looking potent up front with Australian Mark Viduka and Alan Smith firing on all cylinders.

However, the 26-year-old is his nation's rising star, and Sunderland's desire to snap up the striker indicates how highly rated the marksman is.
