Football: Worthington in talks with Wilkinson

Nigel Worthington, Sheffield Wednesday's Northern Ireland left- back, had transfer talks with Leeds last night. Worthington, 32, has turned down Wednesday's offer of a new contract and after meeting the Leeds manager, Howard Wilkinson, he promised an answer within 48 hours. Birmingham City's unsettled midfielder, Paul Tait, once rated in the pounds 2m bracket, may also be on the move. The 22- year-old is set to join Watford in a pounds 250,000 deal.
