Hartlepool United are on the brink of bringing former player Steve Howard back to Victoria Park.
The targetman, 36, has been in discussions with Pools since his release from Leicester City at the end of last season and looks set to pen a two-year deal.
Howard started his career at Hartlepool and later played for Northampton, Luton and Derby County. He then joined Leicester, helping them to promotion from League One in 2009, scoring 15 goals.
He played a squad role when the Foxes returned to the Championship, with his last league goal scored in November 2010. The striker has 205 career goals to his name, 32 of which were scored for Hartlepool.
