Burnley are interested in Tudgay

Sheffield Wednesday striker Marcus Tudgay
Tudgay scored four goals in two games against Burnley last season

Sheffield Wednesday manager Brian Laws has revealed that Burnley have enquired about striker Marcus Tudgay but have not made a formal offer.

Tudgay, 26, was last season's leading scorer with 14 goals, and was the club's player of the season.

"Burnley have made an enquiry, but they are enquiring about a lot of players," Laws told BBC Radio Sheffield.

"We are building a team around Marcus (Tudgay) - he's not for sale. He's not been put up for sale."

It had been reported over the weekend that the newly-promoted Clarets had made a £1.5m offer for the former Derby County man.

Laws added: "The figures that are being bandied about are nowhere near what we would accept in any case."

Tudgay has agreed a new three-year contract which he will sign on his return to pre-season training.
