Taylor: Watson going nowhere

Crystal Palace boss Peter Taylor has rubbished speculation that Ben Watson will be sold.

Middlesbrough, Manchester City and Bolton are rumoured to be sniffing around the midfielder and weekend reports suggested he was set for a £2million exit.

But Taylor told the South London Press: "There's no chance of Ben moving. He finished off last season brilliantly and we've sold enough as far as I'm concerned."

He also quashed reports Tom Soares is on his way to Leicester City and that Palace are interested in Blackburn keeper Jason Brown.

"We like Brown but that's probably an agent drumming up some interest," said Taylor. "I'm not looking to bring another keeper in, and that's for financial reasons as well."
