Leeds manager Neil Warnock has expressed his admiration for Argentinian striker Luciano Becchio.
Becchio signed from Spanish club Merida for an undisclosed fee in August 2008, but struggled to find his best form for large parts of last season following surgery to repair a damaged hamstring last summer.
However, Warnock believes the 28-year-old can can improve on his displays in the new campaign, saying: "I'm a big fan of Becchio. I think he can be a lot better player than what I've seen and that's what I'll be working on in pre-season."
Warnock added: "That's why I decided to put Billy Paynter on the transfer-list, because I feel if I do bring another striker in, he needs to be slightly different to what those two are.
"We're looking at pace in different areas and power as well. It's just trying to get the right recipe on the ins and outs."

NW you might as well go now while there are some clubs wanting a manager and who have got some abition,coz with bates at the helm and now his(our) fines you are gonna have nothing and if he could give you less he would,tight b,std.MOT
lots of hot air..nothing happening except season tickets being sold so bates can mug you off and the season over by christmas....season ticket holders are the ones responsible for the ruining of the club....go game to game and make bates work for his money
it think warnock making big mistake in letting paynter we are going to struggle next season im joining doncaster rovers loll at least it will be cheaper ken bates
Becchios goals got us to where we ended up.
