Leeds are exploring the possibility of cancelling Cameron Stewart's proposed move to Elland Road.
Stewart joined the Championship club from Barclays Premier League side Hull on loan in January, with the move due to be made permanent - on a three-year contract - next month.
However, Sportsmail understands new Leeds owner Massimo Cellino has instructed club officials to enquire about pulling out of the deal.
Stewart, who begun his career at Manchester United, made 11 appearances for the Leeds last season - but Cellino is said to be unconvinced by the forward.
It remains to be seen whether the paperwork in relation to Stewart's move to Leeds would allow Leeds to make such a U-turn.
But, if possible, Cellino is keen to explore the option given the deal was struck by the club's previous hierarchy.
Stewart's deal is due to turn permanent on July 1, meaning Leeds have three weeks to resolve the issue one way or another.
