Danny Mills - latest speculation

Danny Mills' future at the club is becoming the latest game for the papers to play. Although Mills appeared for England last night, it is looking like he doesn't appear in manager Peter Reid's plans...

This morning, the papers are throwing another name into the 'who's going to buy Danny Mills' hat. Kevin Keegan's Manchester City are the latest to be added to the ever growing list of apparent interested clubs. Wolves have admitted they had an interest in the summer, but took it no further, whilst Birmingham, Blackburn, Arsenal and Middlesboro have all been linked with the England full back in recent days. Leeds would be happy to listen to offers, and a fee of around £2 million has been banded around. His wages, which are an alleged £40,000 a week may prove to be a stumbling block though, and there have been suggestions that Leeds would either pay some of his wages (as they did with Robbie Fowler), or even loan him out for the season. I'll bring you more potential clubs tomorrow, as the tabloids are trying to name every possible club, then claim that 'we got it right' as is the norm...
