WBA deny United deal for Kuszczak

West Brom have denied newspaper reports that Manchester United are on the verge of signing goalkeeper Tomasz Kuszczak.

An imminent £4million deal for the Poland international had been suggested, but the club deny any deal has been struck between the sides.

"The reports in the newspapers are pure speculation," a club spokesman said. "The situation hasn't really moved since the manager's comments last Friday."

Manager Bryan Robson claims no offer had been made, saying: "Manchester United do have an interest but that's as far as it's gone. If they make us a big offer then we would have to balance it up."
