Kilgallon Toon loan deal ruled out


Published on Thursday 26 November 2009 12:07

MATTHEW Kilgallon remains on Newcastle United's radar – but Chris Hughton has ruled out a deadline day loan move for the defender.

Instead, the Sheffield United centre-half could be a target in the next transfer window.

It was today reported Kilgallon was on the bring of joining Newcastle today before the loan window shuts with a view to a permanent deal in January.

Hughton has admitted an interested for Kilgallon, who is out of contract next summer.

But he played down the report and suggested he is prepared to keep his power dry until the next transfer window, when he plans to bring in a central defender.

"I'm not sure where that one came from," Hughton told the Gazette.

"At the moment we are where we are, and I don't anticipate anyone coming in.

"Kilgallon's one of a few players that we've had an interest in, but I don't anticipate anything being done today.

"The bigger time for us is the window, and we've got to make sure we do the right business then. I don't think anyone will be going out, either."

York-born Kilgallon – who played against Newcastle earlier this month – started his career at Leeds United before moving to the Bramall Lane club, who have offered him a new contract.

With talks stalled, the 25-year-old is widely tipped to leave Sheffield United in January so the club can recoup a fee.
