Boyd Doesn't Want A Shota Kayserispor
Kris Boyd is playing hard to get and clubs are having to look elsewhere for the talent they want for 2010-11 Shota Arveladze has given up on his attempt to sign Kris Boyd. Kayserispor manager Arveladze reportedly offered the out-of-contract Rangers striker a £4million deal over two years to join the Turkish club. However, former Ibrox player Arveladze was left frustrated when the SPL's record goalscorer turned down the opportunity to fly to Turkey for talks. Boyd has also been linked with a move to Middlesbrough and Blackburn but has yet to make up his mind where his next move will be. Arveladze said: "It is 95% certain now that Kris won't be coming and, of course, I am disappointed because I wanted him in my team. He didn't even want to come out here and see the place. I don't know why. I don't know if it is because he wants to stay in Britain or if there's now a chance he'll remain at Rangers. I've lived all over Europe and this is a lovely place. I've lived in Tbilisi, Amsterdam and Glasgow. There is nothing wrong with Kayseri and it's a great shame he didn't come out here to have a look. I made him my best offer and spoke personally to Kris a couple of times. I also met his agent, Mark Donaghy. But Mark has now told me it won't happen and I am just waiting for formal rejection of our offer. I'd already started looking for other strikers because this was taking so long. It is not easy to find one but I have to try for Kayserispor. We've started pre-season training. It's a pity Boyd didn't tell me his intentions a bit earlier."
