Leeds United run rule over former World Cup star

The 33-year-old midfielder, who has been training at Thorp Arch for the past week, will turn out for the club's reserves against Grimsby on Tuesday.

Manager Simon Grayson said: "Amdy trained with us at the back end of last week and again on Monday.

"He's got plenty of good experience and he's done ok. He'll play on Tuesday and we'll have a look at his fitness levels."

Faye, who counts Portsmouth, Newcastle, Charlton and Rangers among his former clubs, left Stoke in the summer after injury had restricted him to just one appearance last season.
