Real Sociedad have played down the possibility that Burnley forward Danny Ings will sign for the Basque club. Ings becomes a free agent this summer and the 22-year-old is a reported target of Liverpool, Tottenham and Manchester United.

"We have monitored him since the winter transfer market," Sociedad president Jokin Aperribay said. "But we have not spoken to Ings' entourage for almost a month now.

"I don't think he's an easy candidate to arrive to La Real. He has a lot of offers from England and we will have to wait to see what he decides. But it looks highly unlikely that he will join us."
