Quote:
Leicester City striker Mark De Vries is travelling to Tannadice for signing talks with Dundee United.
The 32-year-old, who worked under United manger Craig Levein at Hearts and Leicester, has spent two separate loan spells at Leeds this season.
But a troublesome foot injury has limited his first-team appearances at Elland Road.
The Surinam-born striker, who left Hearts in 2004, has also enjoyed spells at Dutch clubs Den Haag and Heerenveen.
De Vries joined Hearts in May 2002 after signing a pre-contract agreement from Dutch Second Division side Dordrecht '90.

If he signs for Dundee United, he could be a key player them. He has played in the SPL before so he knows what to expect. This could be a clever move from Levein.
