Windass Rumours Continue

'Deano' was already a reserve at Middlesbrough before the big summer signings of Massimo Maccarone and Juninho which now leaves him surplus to requirements at the Riverside Stadium.

The 33-year-old attacker is still idolised at Boothferry Park, but Pearson does not forsee him making a return to his home-town club.

He said: "Neither Jan nor I have spoken to Middlesbrough about Dean.
"Obviously things could change in the future, but at the moment he is probably on nearly ten times what we would pay our players.
"If things were to become more realistic in the future, maybe when Dean's out of contract, then perhaps we would look at doing something."
