Leeds manager Howard Wilkinson has moved to solve his crisis in attack by signing Mark Hateley on a month's loan from QPR.

Wilkinson snapped up the 34 year old former England international to provide cover in the absence of Tony Yeboah and Brian Deane. Hateley will make his debut for Leeds in tonight's home game against Sheffield Wednesday.

Yeboah is recovering from an exploratory knee operation and Deane is out for several weeks after suffering knee and groin injuries during Saturday's season opener at Derby.
