Keepers In The Frame

Last updated : 29 June 2004 By Kevin Markey
The 33-year-old Bennett is poised to have talks on his future when Birmingham City boss Steve Bruce returns to work after a spell in Portugal working for the BBC at Euro 2004.

Bennett has a year left on his contract at St Andrews and Leeds want to sign him on a free transfer but he could also make a move to Elland Road on a year-long loan deal if Bruce agrees to this.

However, Simonsen is available on a free transfer after turning down a new deal at Everton and he has received a number of offers. Leeds are thought to be favourites to sign the 25-year-old.
