Striker Leaves Leeds United

Striker Malcolm Christie has left Leeds United.

The 29-year-old has been registered at Elland Road since October when he impressed former Leeds manager Gary McAllister while training with the Leeds squad to get himself fit after a long lay-off through injury.

The former Middlesbrough and Derby County striker made his Leeds United debut against Northampton in the FA Cup in November, playing on a non-contract basis.

He made five appearances for Leeds United, scoring just one goal in the 3-1 win over Stockport County.

With Tresor Kandol returning to Elland Road from his loan to Millwall FC and Beckford back to fitness the new Leeds manager Simon Grayson now has a surplus of strikers.
