    Leeds United are ready to swoop for Iran international Morteza Pouraliganji, according to the Tasnim News Agency.

    The defender, who can also be utilised in the centre of the park, was due to be joining Trabzonspor in Turkey having left the Qatar outfit Al Sadd, but the two parties were unable to reach an agreement in terms which has left the Iranian in limbo.

    Pouraliganji came to prominence in the World Cup in Russia over the summer, where he played every minute of Iran’s campaign, and with his move to the Super Lig falling through there is an opportunity for Marcelo Bielsa to strike.

    The Argentine was recently quoted as being likely to bring a player to Elland Road on loan, but he would not need to worry about temporary terms for the out of contract defender.

    The fact that Pouraliganji can play at the heart of the defence or as a defensive option in the middle of the park is likely to attract Bielsa to his services, as he is currently short of numbers in both positions in his squad.

    The 26-year-old Iranian was linked with Brighton and Hove Albion earlier in the summer. They signed his international teammate Alireza Jabanbakhsh, but could not agree a deal for Pouraliganji.

    I’m surprised you’ve not volunteered as you live in the south too, and you have all the personal qualities to be a superb mod

    Reminds me of when I moved to Yorkshire in 1990. I called a few people at work 'Southerner', which caused them to go ballistic. Big mistake, but I took it as encouragement! Not the best idea when trying to settle in. :D

    The thing is though, Yorkshire is indeed south of Scotland. I must confess that I didn't truly understand the depth of resentment caused by calling a Yorkie southern. Otherwise I'd have used it more! Boom, boom! Oddly enough, I don't think it's as much an insult now, nearly 30 years later. Am I wrong to think that?
