Middlebrough boss Tony Mowbray has broken his silence over Ross McCormack. The Boro boss had a £1.3m bid for the Scottish striker rejected by Leeds earlier in the week.
However Leeds look set to receive another bid for the player, who has also generated interest from Blackpool.
"I've had conversations with Brian McDermott, but I don't know where the situation is," Mowbray told BBC Tees. "I leave that to the men in suits. If something can be worked out great, but if it can't, we have other options that we can pursue."
Meanwhile Leeds are being linked with Udinese winger Gabriel Torje. The 23-year-old Romanian spent a season long loan at Granada last season who of course like Watford are owned by the same family.
