Dwight Yorke could still leave Manchester United for Blackburn Rovers.

Dwight Yorke could still leave Manchester United for Blackburn Rovers.

United chief executive Peter Kenyon claims a deal between the two clubs is not yet dead.

Rovers are refusing to meet United's asking price for Yorke, who is out of contract next summer.

But Kenyon says a deal for the striker, who has been ledt out in the cold after a bust-up with Sir Alex Ferguson, could still be struck.

He said: "Blackburn and ourselves have been having discussions and will continue to have discussions.

"If we reach a deal we will do it. The gap between us is not as big as has been reported and we have both moved. Everything is possible."
