Burnley boss Owen Coyle has dismissed suggestions he is keen on signing Newcastle United's Damien Duff. Coyle told Burnley's official website, "I read a report linking us with Damien Duff, but he would be nowhere within our reach.

"There will be a host of players out there who are out of our reach. I had to laugh when I was away on holiday (and saw) we were linked with a couple of players who I had never even spoken to!"
