Holloway: Won't pay over the odds

Leicester boss Ian Holloway has slammed Sunderland manager Roy Keane for trying to get more money out of the club in his bid to sign on-loan keeper Marton Fulop.

Holloway, whose initial bid of £1million was turned down by Keane, has deemed the Black Cats boss greedy after he upped the asking price for Fulop to £3million.

Already on-loan at the Walkers Stadium, Fulop has stressed his desire to stay with the Foxes, but Holloway feels the current price tag is making it impossible to strike a deal.

Speaking to The Daily Star, Holloway said: "Maybe Roy thinks he's worth £3million because he's paid £9million for another goalkeeper (Craig Gordon).

"Come on, Marton's not worth that! The boy is upset but the deal is looking dead in the water."
