- Leeds loan in Johnson
Leeds United have signed out-of-favour Wolves striker Jemal Johnson on a month's loan.
The 21-year-old only moved to Molineux at the start of the season from Blackburn Rovers, but has slipped down the pecking order with the Midlands club in recent weeks.
Manager Mick McCarthy told Wolves' official club website: "Jemal's opportunities have been reduced here with Andy Keogh and Stephen Ward playing so well.
"He needs to get some football. Leeds expressed some interest and Dennis Wise wants to freshen up his squad, so this will be a good move for him."
Johnson scored twice in his first three games for Wolves, but has found the net just once in a further 21 appearances.
