Wolves explain McFadden offer
Wolves manager Mick McCarthy has denied reports the club were outbid by Everton for James McFadden's signature. [LNB] The free agent rejoined his former club on Monday in a deal which will keep him at Goodison Park until the end of the season. [LNB]McFadden rejected a similar offer from Molineux in favour of returning to his old stomping ground, where he spent five years between 2003 and 2008. [LNB]Speculation has surfaced that Everton tabled a higher bid to tempt the former Birmingham forward back to Merseyside.[LNB]But McCarthy has poured cold water on suggestions that McFadden chose the Toffees because of cash, insisting the clubs made identical offers for the Scotsman.[LNB]The manager told the Express & Star: "We never lost him - he chose to go to Everton. And as far as I'm aware, there was nothing in it in terms of the finance of the offers.[LNB]"He went there purely by choice because he wanted to go to Everton - he was there before. [LNB]"They offered him a deal to the end of the season, which was the same as we were offering him."
