Kluivert rejects Owls offer

Patrick Kluivert has decided not to accept Sheffield Wednesday's offer of a trial.

Patrick Kluivert has decided not to accept Sheffield Wednesday's offer of a trial.

Owls boss Brian Laws announced earlier this week that he had invited the Dutchman to train with his squad.

Kluivert has been restricted by injuries in recent seasons and was only able to make five starts for PSV Eindhoven last term.

He is looking to play more regularly and is thrilled to have received the offer from Sheffield Wednesday.

But the 30-year-old is not planning to join The Owls and will instead consider other options.

"I am flattered with the interest," he told Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf.

"However, a move to Sheffield Wednesday is not in my future plans.

"I will wait and see what happens. My agent will show me all the options I have and after that I will make a decision."
