Kevin Blackwell's bid to sign keeper Stephan Andersen was scuppered late last night due to Charlton's insistence on a recall clause.
The Whites boss had hoped to recruit the Dane ahead of Thursday's transfer deadline, but saw the deal fall through due to a technicality. The Addicks were not prepared to allow their third choice stopper to depart without the option for him to return to The Valley in the event of emergency. Charlton's general manager Andrew Mills told the club's website: "It looked as though the deal was done but Leeds were uncomfortable with the recall clause we were keen to implement so, regrettably, it didn't happen. "Iain (Dowie) couldn't afford to loan out Steph and not have the option to recall him in the event of anything happening Wayne _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
