Gray set for Leeds
Julian Gray is expected to complete his "dream move" to Leeds within the next fortnight following Harry Kewell's departure to Liverpool.
The Crystal Palace winger has been training with Peter Reid's side and hopes to replace Kewell in the starting line-up at Elland Road once compensation for the Eagles can be agreed.
A spokesman for his representatives Proactive Sports Group said: "Julian is training with Leeds this week. He's highly impressed with the club and the set-up and would see a move to Leeds as being a dream move.
"Proactive are obviously aware Leeds are looking for a certain calibre of young player to fill the gap left by Harry Kewell."
Gray hit the headlines last season with FA Cup goals for Palace against Leeds and Liverpool, but the 23-year-old refused to sign an improved deal to stay at Selhurst Park and is currently out of contract.
Palace are entitled to compensation for the former Arsenal player because he is under 24 and talks between the two clubs are at an advanced stage
