Purse can go if City get someone in

Dave Jones has confirmed that Darren Purse can leave the club and that there has been interest in him but it will only be allowed to happen if he gets a replacement first, a situation he is working on.

Purse, City's club captain, is spending his second season at City effectively being a reserve. A brief resurgence this season didn't last long as he finds himself behind Gypes and Johnson and he was behind Loovens and Johnson last term. Committed and hugely likeable, Purse has waned and needs first team football with Leeds and Soputhampton expressing interest amongst others.

Talking to BBC, Dave Jones says, "We've had inquiries about Darren Purse. Darren knows the situation that we won't be letting any players out until we've got replacements.''Darren knows this and is happy. He is still trying to earn a contract here which is fine, but he knows I'm looking for other players."
