Lee Bowyer has been placed on the transfer list with immediate effect after refusing to accept a fine imposed by his club.

Bowyer was found not guilty of affray and grievous bodily harm with intent in relation to an assault on student Sarfraz Najeib.

But Leeds feel the midfielder breached the club's code of conduct as he was under the influence of alcohol on the night of the attack.

Leeds have imposed a fine of four weeks wages on Bowyer, while also insisting he undergoes community programme work for the remainder of his contract.

Bowyer, however, has refused to accept the internal disciplinary action, forcing the club to place him on the transfer list.
