Bruce confirms 'interest' in World Cup star

Last updated : 30 November 2002 By Brian Cartlidge
However, the Blues boss has been quick to point out that reports claiming he had already agreed to sign the player were “very, very premature.”

Coly's contract with Lens runs out next summer and Leeds, Middlesbrough and Tottenham have all been linked to signing him.

Bruce said: "Coly is someone we are very interested in and we could be near to sorting something out. We will have to see how matters develop.

“But to say a deal has been agreed is very, very premature. We haven’t agreed anything or even spoken with the player.

"Will Aliou Cisse being here help Coly to make up his mind? I hope so.”
