Man U reject set to replace Kasper

Sky Sports name Paul Rachubka as Leeds' mystery keeper.

Much travelled, US journeyman keeper Paul Rachubka is in the frame to replace Leicester City bound Kasper Schmeichel - according to Sky Sports late on Tuesday night.

The US born keeper began his career at Manchester United, leaving after just one game. The 30-year-old has since had something of a nomadic career moving between many clubs on loan, including Oldham, Huddersfield, Burnley, MK Dons and Northampton. He came to Simon Grayson's attention at Blackpool - initially joining them on loan in January 2007.

He made three apperances for the Seasiders last season, conceding NINE goals in the process. Bizarrely Grayson has said he is keen to sign a replacement for Schmeichel who will make Leeds better at the back.

If this story is true, then this will simply not wash with the Leeds fans and smack of yet another low level investment.
