Leeds United manager Brian McDermott has confirmed that he will hold talks with an unnamed player over a move to Elland Road.

McDermott had previously stated that he would like to add to his squad during the January transfer window, but only if he could secure the services of someone who would improve his options.

"Talking transfers today, Brian McD confirmed that he is speaking with a player this afternoon about a possible move to #lufc," read a post on the club's official Twitter page.

On Wednesday the Whites will play host to Blackburn Rovers at Elland Road.
