Leeds admit FA charge

Charge relates to transfer of Elding

Last updated: 3rd September 2008

Leeds have pleaded guilty to a Football Association charge of using an unlicensed agent.

The charge relates to the transfer of Anthony Elding from Stockport in the January transfer window.

Leeds have requested a personal hearing and reiterated that no payment has been made or is alleged to have been made to the agent involved in respect of the transfer.

Elding moved to Elland Road for an undisclosed fee after being linked with a number of clubs.

He struggled to find his best form in Yorkshire and joined Crewe in July.
