Adam Transfer Request Rejected

In a development to this afternoon’s breaking news that Blackpool captain Charlie Adam has handed in a transfer request, ‘Pool manager Ian Holloway has stated in a lengthy press conference that the request has been rejected and that the Seasiders will not sell the Scottish international midfielder unless the clubs pursuing him vastly improve their offers for the player.

Aston Villa, Birmingham and Liverpool have all had bids rejected for the player, but it was Liverpool’s interest that sparked Adam’s transfer request.

Holloway also stated that Adam will play against Manchester United tomorrow, although it will be interesting to see if he retains the captaincy.
