Matthews Tranmere Link
By: Stephen Bateman
Date: 04/03/2001
REPORTS in a Sunday newspaper suggest that Leeds United striker Lee Matthews could be set for a surprise switch to Tranmere Rovers later this week. Matthews, who is currently on trial with Grimsby Town, is believed to have come to the attention of Rovers' boss John Aldridge.
The Birkenhead club's manager is reported as having watched Matthews playing for the United reserves last week.
Although the 22-year-old striker is under contract with the Premiership side until the summer, Leeds boss David O'Leary has told him that his present deal will not be renewed and has advised him to start looking for another club.
The Mariners are currently desperate to add some fire-power in an effort to revive their flagging bid to maintain First Division status next season and the departure of Matthews would be seen as yet another blow to the club after constantly failing in their efforts to attract a striker to Blundell Park.
This site is by the fans, for the fans, and we will consider articles on any subject relating to the Mariners whether it be related to current news, a nostalgic look back in the past, a story about a player, a game or games in the past, something about Blundell Park or football in general.
