Leeds have bid rejected for Nigeria international
LEEDS had a bid rejected for Wolves goalkeeper Carl Ikeme, according to reports.
Carl Ikeme has been on loan nine times since 2003
The Nigeria international is a serial loanee, having been sent out to eight different clubs in the football league since 2003.
It's understood Leeds made the loan approach in October, shortly after Steve Evans' appointment as manager.
And Evans' need for a goalkeeper has also lessened following the improved performances of Marco Silvestri.
The 24-year-old kept a clean sheet in his last Championship outing against Charlton, but Leeds are still lagging down in 18th place.
