Leadbitter Deal Reportedly Done
Tuesday, 1st Sep 2009 13:08

Sunderland midfielder Grant Leadbitter is reported to have completed his move to the Blues. The 23-year-old is said to have signed a three-year contract.

The joint deal involving Leadbitter and Carlos Edwards is understood to be costing the Blues £4 million after top-ups, with the England U21 international said to make up £2.6 million of that fee.

Town’s signing of Edwards is also thought to be very close to being confirmed.

bluelass7 added 13:13 - Sep 1 Why do people keep saying we need a forward? We do not need anymore strikers, they will settle and come good very soon. Pleased about Leadbitter, if it is signed and sealed blah blah. Must admit, can't wait til 5pm so it's all over!

floridaboy added 13:17 - Sep 1 One down, how many more to come. Just think as Roy has been getting a bit of flak from a minority that he will pull a major signing out of the hat. Appreciate Leadbitter is a good signing and will enhance the side but a bigger name. Feeling in the water!

rayman_10 added 13:30 - Sep 1 Just cos Spurs signed Kranjcar does'nt mean there getting rid of Gio, don't get me wrong i would love to see him back and besides, Spurs are 'Reportedly' getting rid of Bentley. So lets concentrate on the deals were getting. Great news about Leadbitter though. Quality player

Bigfish - "Stop moaning and put your energy in supporting the team" - If you're supposed to be supporting the team then why say we need a striker, talk about demoralise the one's we already have that are either still getting used to each other or just not had the service enough yet, which again will come when the changes recently to our midfield also get used to each other We do not need anymore strikers.

Up the Town!

GeorgiDoundarov added 13:41 - Sep 1 This is great! We have finally a good player actually interested in joining us! And as reported earlier Grant was the not so sure one of the two. So Edwards will be the next then! I just pray we manage to get 3-4 today even on loan is fine. We need good players to get us up! Good Luck today Keano! You will need it!!!

BlueBoots added 13:46 - Sep 1 The one area of our squad I'm happy with is Right Wing (Walters or Peters), so I wouldn't be too upset to see the Edwards deal fall through...
