The agent of Leeds United striker Jermaine Beckford has confirmed the interest of Portuguese clubs.

Speculation continues to surround the striker's future after he rejected fresh terms during the close season and remains out of contract next summer.

Beckford's agent Nick Rubery has confirmed a Portuguese club - rumoured to be Sporting Braga - have lodged their interest in his client, who is also being linked with a move to QPR.

"I can't reveal any names, but a Portuguese club have spoken to me about Jermaine," confirmed Rubery to the Portuguese media.

"Beckford's a good footballer and could play for a good club in Portugal. He's playing very well and is focused on his future."
