Norwich have tried to take the former England U21 striker back on-loan but their offer was rejected by the Royals who may want to cash in on his talent now rather then lose him in the summer for free. If Town do want to the sign the striker, who has scored 60 goals in 185 starts so far in his career, they may have to beat off West Brom, Newcastle, Everton and Sheffield United.
Reading have said so far they are yet to receive a firm offer for Lita, with Reading's director of football Nicky Hammond saying: "Leroy has been out getting games and scoring goals
"At the moment he is back here training and the challenge for him is to try to get his place back. But I wouldn't rule anything out."
Elsewhere Town are being linked with a move for Hull City striker Dean Windass who has struggled to get games for Hull in the Premiership and looks certain to go out on-loan this month.
