Huck in transfer u-turn

West Borm and Norwich are in hot pursuit of his signature but the former Coventry striker wants to see if he can force his way back into the City picture over the Christmas period.

City's poor run of form in front of goal in the last few weeks must have led to Huckerby's last ditch u-turn.

If he still fails to impress Keegan, then Huckerby will have to accept that his future lies elsewhere come the January transfer window.

Reports claim that West Ham and Portsmouth are the latest clubs to join the race. If Pompey follow up their alleged interest then they may become favourites as Huckerby's agent has repeated his client's desire to remain in the Premiership.
