Burns Boothferry Bound?

The midfielder, who has played 4 times for the Premiership side, is thought to have a £150,000 price tag on his head, though City are more likely to try and get him on a season-long loan.

Leeds bought the Sydney-born 24-year-old from Parrameta two years ago for £250,000. He is an Australian international.

City are unlikely to go for another midfielder having already signed Stuart Green, Richie Appleby and Ian Ashbee, and with Williams, Price, Kerr, Mann, Greaves, Philpott and Peat in reserve. However manager Jan Molby might be interested in signing the utility player on loan to add strength to his squad.
