Clubs Sniffing For Scott

He also advised any clubs that there would be no more bargain basement buys from Elland Road.

Blackwell revealed he has had lots of interest from several clubs in England U-21 keeper Scott Carson, who is second choice behind Neil Sullivan.

Blackwell said: "Scott is only just turned 19 and is keeping 'Sully' on his toes. He is a Trojan in training and gets so passionate about the game that he even gets upset if he makes a mistake in the warm-up. The coaches feel he will be a fixture in the England Under-21 side for the next couple of years.

"It's just unfortunate I can't play him in our first team at the moment because 'Sully' has so much experience and is playing so well."
