Gala deny Tugay talk

Turkish side Galatasaray have denied that they are interested in bringing Blackburn midfielder Tugay back to the club.

Former Gala man Tugay has endured a disappointing season at Ewood Park and has been linked with a return to Istanbul.

However, the Turkish side have insisted that they have made no move for the Turkish international.

"We haven't at all spoken to Tugay Kerimoglu," said vice president Ergun Gursoy on the club's website.

Gursoy also blasted reports that former Blackburn striker Hakan Suker will be leaving the club.

"News that Hakan Sukur will be leaving is not true either. We're actually going to offer him a contract extension.

"I hope fans don't take these speculative articles seriously."
