Blackpool have signed former Leeds United left-back Ian Harte on a month-to-month contract.

The 31-year-old Republic of Ireland international is a free agent after leaving Sunderland at the end of last season, having had trials with Wolves, Sheffield United and Charlton Athletic in recent months.

Harte made his name during nearly a decade with Leeds, while he has also played in Spain with Levante.

Meanwhile, Seasiders boss Simon Grayson is eyeing an extension of midfielder Lee Hendrie's loan stay at Bloomfield Road.

The 31-year-old Sheffield United man is set to start a three-game suspension, with Grayson waiting to see if Hendrie will be allowed to stay on for a second month.

He told the Blackpool Gazette: "We'll assess the situation and see what Lee wants to do.

"We need to speak to Sheffield United as well and get their view because he is their player, but I am hopeful that it might be something that we are able to extend."
