Leeds United boss Simon Grayson is still waiting to be able to welcome injury-hit Derby County striker Liam Dickinson to the club.

The 23-year-old has yet to feature for the Rams since his move from Stockport County last summer, but impressed during loan stints with Huddersfield Town and Blackpool earlier this term.

Grayson told the Yorkshire Evening Post: "There is a deal waiting to be done for Liam Dickinson.

"The lad has had 45 minutes in Derby's reserves this week, but we need to make sure he is fully fit.

"We will give him a few days to assess his fitness. It is still ongoing, but it's an opportunity.

"He is closer to being fit than he was a few weeks ago, so we will see what happens."
