Only One Bid For Leon Clarke - Pressley

Last updated : 17 January 2014 By Covsupport News Service

Coventry City Manager Steven Pressley has said that there has only been one bid for Leon Clarke.

 "One club have made an offer to us but it's an offer that we, at this moment in time, don't think is sufficient, and that's the only piece of interest we've had," Pressley told the Press Association.

"He'll be going nowhere until the club we talk about reaches what we believe to be the correct figure."

The City boss has admitted to be disappointed by Clarke handing in a transfer request but felt that it was the nature of the game. He said: "It's normal, your head gets turned by another football club who are probably promising you a lot more money than we're paying.

"I understand that, I'm just disappointed with the timing because we've come such a long way in five or six months and got ourselves into a position where we could potentially be challenging at the top end of the league.

"It's obviously a big blow because he's been a big part of that but I understand the reasons."
