Irons: “Cresswell not for sale to ANYONE!”
Rumours and a recycled story arose in the morning press that the Manchester club were again on the prowl and standing by with a £12 million bid for last season’s Hammer of the Year.
But a quick phone call from ClaretandHugh to a top club contact confirmed that there was no chance of any bid for the former Ipswich player succeeding.
We were told emphatically: “He has been given a new deal and loves it here. Quite apart from that there is absolutely no chance of us selling Aaron Cresswell to Manchester City or anyone else.
