Becks Set For Return At Stockport

The striker is two weeks into a projected month-long rehabilitation period, and Leeds are confident that he will make his comeback on schedule and in time for the second half of their League One campaign.

The 25-year-old has already resumed light training sessions at Thorp Arch, and he looks likely to become available to Gary McAllister around Leeds' visit to Stockport County on December 28.

McAllister said: "It's been two weeks so far and the prediction of four weeks for Jermaine is looking very accurate. He's progressing well and he's running again."
