Deano Set For Return

Last updated : 10 July 2004 By Kevin Markey
The 36-year-old striker is joined by Craig Hignett, 34, and Steve Guppy, 35, who are all on trial whilst on the 2 game tour.

Deane scored 38 goals in 171 appearances for Leeds between 1993 and 1997 after signing from Sheffield United.

The Leeds-born frontman returned to The Blades before playing for Benfica, Middlesbrough, Leicester and West Ham, who released him at the end of last season.

Hignett is a proven forward with a wealth of experience and both players have been training with United this week.

Guppy is available on a Bosman free after joining Leicester in January for a second spell and could be brought in to fill the vacant left-wing position.

The trio will all be looking to impress at the club's base just inside the Arctic circle when they play two games against local Swedish opposition.
