Blackburn reject McCarthy and Santa Cruz approaches
Published Date:
19 August 2008
WHILE ROY Keane works to bolster his defence, the clear message from Blackburn boss Paul Ince is that Sunderland striking target Benni McCarthy will not be allowed to leave Ewood Park.
Rovers rejected bids for strikers Roque Santa Cruz and McCarthy last week, while full-back Stephen Warnock has been linked with a move away from Lancashire.
With the transfer window closing in 12 days, Ince insisted: "This has been going on and on - about Santa Cruz and other people.
"The more you keep on about it, the more it unsettles what we are trying to achieve.
"I do not want to keep saying this, but nobody is going to be leaving the club.
"We want to keep our best players, be it Santa Cruz, Warnock or McCarthy and any one of a dozen players.
"Let's dispel all this. No-one is leaving the club."
