Darlington boss Mark Cooper has rubbished reports that highly-rated defender Dan Burn has agreed a move to Fulham. Negotiations are reportedly ongoing between the Conference side and Fulham, who face competition from Everton for the 18 year old.
However, Cooper told the Northern Echo: "It's as you were at the weekend. I've not spoken to the chairman since Saturday but as far as I'm aware nothing has been agreed.
"Deals can be agreed but they can't be done yet. So an agreement would mean nothing if, say, Manchester United came in and offered £1million then he would go there instead.
"A deal can't be done until July 1 anyway, besides he's struggling with a knee problem that he's had for a couple of weeks so there's no point us risking him."
Cooper added: "There's no rush, the only concern would be that if he played and got a bad injury that could cost us. There's lots and lots of interest in him still but at the moment, apart from one or two clubs, that's all it is."Mo<
