Stoke City have turned down a brace of bids for captain Clive Clarke. Burnely tabled �125,000 for the 25-year-old midfielder while Premiership new boys Sunderland proposed a �100,000 deal.
"Obviously the manager (Johan Boskamp) has got to assess the players so we've turned down the offers," said director of football John Rudge said.
"He's an Irish international and the offers made are substantially less than the player is worth."
