Alex Neil willing to loan out Luciano Becchio

Luciano Becchio may leave Norwich City on loan in the near future, according to manager Alex Neil.

Norwich City manager Alex Neil has revealed that he would consider any loan offers for striker Luciano Becchio.

The Argentine has struggled to hold down a regular place in the starting lineup at Carrow Road ever since his move from Leeds United back in the winter of 2013.

His fellow forwards Lewis Grabban, Cameron Jerome and Gary Hooper have all been in good goalscoring form of late and with that in mind, Neil has conceded that a temporary move for Becchio could be best for all concerned.

"He is just training with the squad at the minute but I think I have better options at the moment than Luc up top so he is finding it hard to get into the squad," Neil told the Eastern Daily Press.

"Potentially I wouldn't be adverse to letting him go out on loan and getting some game-time. It is something we have looked at, but that is not the case at the moment."

Becchio has failed to score in any of his 16 appearances for the Norfolk-based club.
