Leeds reject United’s £5.5m bid for Smith

LEEDS yesterday rejected two offers from Manchester United for star striker Alan Smith.

The Red Devils initially made a bid of £3.5m for Smith, and after that was turned down, the Old Trafford board returned with an improved bid of £5.5m.

That has also been thrown out as Leeds value the forward at closer to the £10m mark, and it is understood Liverpool are preparing to step in.
