NORWICH BOSS ALEX Neil has hit back at Steve Bruce’s recent comments regarding Robbie Brady, and confirmed that the club are still interested in the Ireland international.
Bruce previously described the Canaries’ recent bids for Brady as “embarrassing,” adding: “The supporters should know the truth and Norwich came in two weeks ago with a bid of £2m (€2.7m), £2.5m (€3.5m) and then £3m (€4.1m). That’s ridiculous for someone who is 23, has played two years in the Premier League and has become a regular international.”
However, Neil has played down this criticism, telling local reporters: “Steve Bruce can say what he likes. It doesn’t make any difference to us.
“We go about our business in an unassuming way. We just do our own thing. We don’t try and put things in the press. If they want to do that, that is fine.
“We are working on things and I don’t really like to get into individuals but as everybody is aware Robbie Brady is a player we like. We have made a few bids and there is interest, but at the moment we have to wait and see what is going to happen.”
Bruce previously hinted he would be open to letting the Dubliner leave at the right price, saying: “As I’ve said from the start, I’ll not stand in anyone’s way who wants to play in the Premier League.”
