Burnley end Kilgallon interest

Posted Saturday, January 16, 2010 by PA

Burnley have revealed they made enquiries for Sheffield United defender Matthew Kilgallon but will not be pursuing their interest.

It had been claimed this week the former Leeds player had rejected a move to Turf Moor but a fresh report on Friday morning suggested the Clarets were prepared to double the 26-year-old's wages.

A statement read: "Burnley Football can confirm an interest in signing Sheffield United central defender Matthew Kilgallon. However, the club is not prepared to meet the agent's excessive wage demands for his player."

It continued: "Contrary to a national newspaper report, the club has no intention of breaking its wage structure and disrupting the togetherness of a united squad.

"Burnley Football Club will instead look elsewhere for reinforcements."
