Sheffield Wednesday offer Kluivert trial

Sheffield Wednesday have offered a trial to former Holland striker Patrick Kluivert.

The ex-Ajax, AC Milan and Barcelona forward – currently at PSV Eindhoven – has already had a spell in England when he spent the 2004/05 season with Newcastle.

Owls manager Brian Laws confirmed the Coca-Cola Championship club have invited the 31-year-old for a trial but played down its significance.

Laws told BBC Radio Sheffield: “I have a strong contact in Holland who is Kluivert’s agent.

“We’ve invited the boy down, and I want to run the rule over him. It is just a possibility and is nothing concrete at the moment – but we’ve made an inquiry.”
