Leeds boss Steve Evans has admitted his interest in signing Everton's Aiden McGeady.

The winger is chasing first team football ahead of Euro 2016 and the Toffees are happy to let him leave on loan.

The Republic of Ireland international is close to the top of Evans' shopping list, but they could face a battle to land him - he's desperate to remain in the Premier League.

They could also face competition from Yorkshire rivals Sheffield Wednesday , who are said to be interested in a loan deal for McGeady.

And Everton are popular with eagle-eyed Championship managers - Darron Gibson is also said to be a loan target for the Owls.

After a successful spell with Boro last season it was thought he would go from strength to strength with Crystal Palace this term, but he chose to terminate his loan deal with the Eagles earlier this month due to lack of playing time.

Norwich and Boro are also interested, with Chelsea ready to cash in and let Bamford go on a permanent deal.

The trotters are in financial difficulties and could lose a number of stars - and fellow Lancashire outfit PNE are ready to capitalise.

Charlton are also said to be interested in the 29-year-old, who can play on the right or in the centre.
