The 33-year-old forward came on as a subsitute to win the man-of-the-match award in his club's FA Cup final win last Saturday.

"There is no doubt in my mind now that Teddy could play a part for England," said Keegan.

"I couldn't pick him earlier because he was not playing regularly. But he is definitely in my thoughts because of the way he is playing for his club."

"I am buying potential with this one, but my next signings may be big-money signings," warned Leeds manager David O'Leary.

Stay away from Gray

Premiership clubs considering bidding for Sunderland left-back Michael Gray have been told he is not for sale.

Manager Peter Reid spoke out after Aston Villa were linked with the 24-year-old, who made his England debut in the recent friendly in Hungary.

"I do not feel I need to comment on pure speculation. I'm going to say this for the last time - Michael Gray is going nowhere," said Reid.

"He has just broken into the England squad, he is a home-town boy and this club is now in the Premiership. I cannot understand why he would want to move on or why we would want to sell him."
